ConfigurationSetting method - ReencryptSecureInformation

Generates a new encryption key and re-encrypts all secure information in the catalog using this new key.

Syntax

Public Sub ReencryptSecureInformation(ByRef HRESULT as Int32, ByRef ExtendedErrors() As String)  

public void ReencryptSecureInformation (out Int32 HRESULT, out string[] ExtendedErrors);  

Parameters

HRESULT
[out] Value indicating whether the call succeeded or failed.

ExtendedErrors[]
[out] A string array containing other errors returned by the call.

Return value

Returns an HRESULT indicating success or failure of the method call. A value of 0 indicates that the method call was successful. A nonzero value indicates that an error occurred.

Remarks

The ReencryptSecureInformation method allows the administrator to replace the existing encryption key with a new key.

When this method is invoked, the report server generates a new encryption key and iterates through all encrypted content to re-encrypt it with the new encryption key.

Delivery extensions can store secured information in their delivery settings structures. When ReencryptSecureInformation is called, the report server loads each subscription and the corresponding delivery extension to re-encrypt information stored in the associated settings.

If this method is run on a computer in a scale-out deployment, each computer in the scale-out deployment needs to be initialized again.

Requirements

Namespace: root\Microsoft\SqlServer\ReportServer\<InstanceName>\v13\Admin
