Prerequisites to Signing a User-Supplied Exit

If you want to use your own, user-supplied exit, certain requirements apply.

Signing Required After Each Install

Unlike the Optim Security feature, which you must initialize once per Optim Directory, you must sign an exit each time you install Optim on a machine. Moreover, when you upgrade to a new Optim release, you must sign a valid exit for each Optim installation, before you can use Optim. The same is true if you reinstall Optim.

Anytime you replace a signed exit executable (i.e., opmexit.dll, libopmexit.so, or libopmexit.sl) with another version of that exit, you must sign the updated exit to use Optim. This is true, even if the executable was previously signed (e.g., in another installation or copied from a backup of a signed exit).
