BizTalk Server Configuration Master key has not yet been backed up by the solution

When you use BizTalk Server, the following error prompts may appear in the event log:
The master key has not been backed up. If the owner key is lost, all information stored in the SSO system will be permanently lost and the system may not function properly. Please use SSO to manage employees with a master key.

This is because you did not make a backup of the master key to the error message that was raised by BizTalk Server.

When you make a backup, you must be a single sign-on administrator to perform this task. You will be prompted to enter a password. If you want to restore the key later, you must provide the same password.

If the master key server crashes and the key is lost or the key is corrupted, the adapter configuration stored in the credential database cannot be retrieved. Therefore, you must back up your master key, or you risk losing data in your credential database.

The steps for backing up the master key are as follows:

1. On the Start menu, click Run.
2. In the Open box, type cmd, and then click OK.
3. On the command line, go to the Enterprise Single sign-on installation directory. The default installation directory is the < installation directory >:/program Files/common files/enterprise single Sign-On. For example:

CD "C:/Program Files/common files/enterprise single sign-on"

4. At the command prompt, type the following syntax to back up the master key:
Ssoconfig-backupsecret < backup files >
where < backup file > refers to the path and name of the file where the master key is to be backed up. For example
Ssoconfig-backupsecret MyBackup

5. Enter at least 7 characters of password and confirm password as prompted, and password hint
Only local administrators and SSO administrators can run these ssoconfig commands. If the command fails, check the event log.
These commands can only be run on the master key server.
