If you had gone through my blog entry here, i would have talked about using UDML as a way for automating migration from dev to test/prod environments. But the major problem with UDML is that one cannot update the passwords of Connection Pools, Users etc since the UDML expects them to be encoded. In such a case, for updating passwords alone we can use an undocumented command line switch option for the AdminTool. For example, look at the screenshot below.

Inherited Colour Vision Deficiency

Red/green colour blindness is a common hereditary condition which means it is usually passed down from your parents. Colour blindness is usually passed from mother to son on the 23rd chromosome, which is the sex chromosome. Chromosomes are structures which contain genes – these contain the instructions for the development of cells, tissues and organs. If you are colour blind it means the instructions for the development of your cone cells are wrong and the cone cells might be missing, or less sensitive to light or it may be that the pathway from your cone cells to your brain has not developed correctly. The X chromosome is the sex chromosome: males have an X chromosome and a Y chromosome and females have two X chromosomes. For a male to be colour blind the faulty colour blindness gene only has to appear on his X chromosome. For a female to be colour blind it must be present on both of her X chromosomes. This is why red/green colour blindness is far more common in men than women. Bl...
