Entropy Pool Settings

The entropy pool is used to retrieve random numbers that are required to secure connections to the JS7 - Database and to a JS7 - Credential Store.

This setting can be applied if the Java version in use is configured to use the /dev/random entropy pool that shows a blocking behavior when randomness is exhausted. This results in substantial delays and errors when accessing a database or Credential Store. Switch to a source of randomness with non-blocking behavior by use of the following Java option:


Code Block
languagebash
titleSet entropy pool
# Recommended: specify non-blocking entropy pool if not specified by java.security file
JAVA_OPTIONS="-Djava.security.egd=file:///dev/urandom"
