Before you can use SecureData with OpenText™ Analytics Database, you must verify the following:.

Before you can use SecureData with OpenText™ Analytics Database, you must verify the following:

  • You are using version 6.0 or later of SecureData. The database integration functions use APIs introduced in version 6.0 of SecureData.

  • All of the nodes in your database cluster are able to communicate with all of your SecureData appliance hosts. Any firewalls between your database cluster and your SecureData appliance must allow connections on the ports that SecureData uses for communications. See "Ensuring Access to SecureData Services" in the Voltage SecureData Appliance Installation Guide (downloadable with the SecureData ISO) for a list of the ports reserved by SecureData.

  • Your database is not using Federal information processing standard (FIPS) mode. FIPS is incompatible with the Voltage SecureData integration. When FIPS mode is active, the SecureData integration library is not installed by default. Do not manually install this library if you are using FIPS.

  • You are following the best practices when using Safe Unicode FPE formats.
