Encrypt the credentials when running WLST in interactive or script mode

WebLogic Server provides a way to encrypt the credentials for server start up. You can create a password file "boot.properties" (called as Boot Identity File) with plain text credentials in a folder named security under the server root directory. This file will be automatically detected during the server start up and the server will encrypt the information in this file for subsequent use. Until WebLogic Server 9.x this file should be placed under the DOMAIN folder. So servers sharing the same file system share the same boot identity file and cannot be configured to use different files.
