Configure DataBreeze

Configuration of DataBreeze Server

7 of 10 


DataBreeze must be configured to set up resource locations and security. This process includes three parts:

Configuration of the DataBreeze Entry Script (dbz)
In this demonstration, the full name and path of the Entry Script file is: '/opt/script/dbz'.

The Entry Script must be executable:


# chmod +x /opt/script/dbz

The Entry Script must contain the path to the DataBreeze Code Library (.pm) files. In this demonstration, the Code Library is located in: /opt/dbz/DBZ/ directory. This line allows the Entry Script to 'use' the Code Library (default):

use lib '/opt/dbz/DBZ';

The Entry Script must have the full path to the DataBreeze Data files (data). In this demonstration, the Data files are located in the /opt/dbz/data/ directory. This line assigns the $data_path variable to the full path of the Data files (default).

my $data_path = "/opt/dbz/data/";



Change Account Passwords

The DataBreeze MetaData files contain DataBreeze User accounts including encrypted passwords. As downloaded, you will be unable to login to any of the accounts because the passwords are not distributed due to security reasons. The dbz_change_password.pl script will iterate through each DataBreeze Account and change the password to that supplied at the prompt.

Note: This script needs the full path to the DataBreeze data file location. By default this is '/opt/dbz/data/user/'

  • This script is a serious security hazard for obvious reasons.
  • The script should be readable and executable only by root.
  • This script should be removed from the system after the initial passwords have been changed

    Secure the dbz_change_password.pl script and execute


  • # cd /opt/conf
    Download the Change Password Script dbz_change_password.pl
    # chown root:root dbz_change_password.pl
    # chmod o-rwx dbz_change_password.pl
    # perl dbz_change_password.pl
