Configuring Bravura Pass batch files

Depending on your infrastructure, you may need to write a batch file to retrieve and deliver ID files from users’ PCs or a network share. You include the batch file as an option in the target configuration file .

Write a batch file to match your local business process, and copy it into the \<instance>\script\ directory. The batch file will be invoked by Bravura Pass during password and reset operations with three arguments:

The following is an example of a batch file that Bravura Pass will run to publish ID files to a local web site on the Bravura Pass server:

NET USE x: \\FILESERVER\%2$ /user:psadmin psadminpassword
if /I %1==GET  (
copy /Y "x:\%2.id" "%3"
) else (
if /I %1==PUT (
copy /Y "%3" "x:\%2.id"
) else (
echo "Action must be GET or PUT."
)
)
NET USE x: /delete /yes

In the example, Bravura Pass retrieves ID files from a specified network share when it updates the repository (for example, during a verify or reset operation), and installs new ID files in the specified network share after extracting them from the repository and changing their password. If successful, Bravura Pass resets the password against the retrieved ID file; otherwise the password is reset against the repository’s ID file.

The file assumes that each user has a hidden share named after their Lotus Notes ShortName and that share already exists on the FILESERVER , and it also assumes that the Bravura Pass IDs are the same as the Lotus Notes ShortName.

See the figures below for details on the verify and reset processes when using a batch file.
