Copying the shadow file to clocks

Before starting this procedure you must contact Infor Support to obtain the password_script.zip file.

Note: These steps should be performed on a single clock to ensure the process works before pushing it to all clocks in a production environment. You can use the file update process to update a single clock, a group of clocks, or all clocks.

See Updating clocks.

The next step involves pushing the shadow file to a production clock using the file update process.

  1. Create a folder update.x in the folder for the latest version of the clock update on WFM server machine, where x is greater than any existing folder.
  2. Unzip the password_script.zip that you obtained from Infor Support to the update.x folder.
  3. Copy the previously copied shadow file to the update.x/script folder.

The clock(s) will download the file on the next scheduled file update as configured in the clocks. No reboot of the clocks is required.
