In pmcmd command we need to type -p:password. Will it be
visible to others who is having access to this file ?

Answer Posted / pavan

Yes the password will be visible, if some one has read access to that file.
We can secure the original password by using the -pv option and by encrypting the password using pmpasswd utility of informatica..

so we will get encrypted password using pmpasswd utility and use that encrypted password in pmcmd with -pv option.
