We ended up just using CyberArk as a place to store passwords, which we manually synced with the accounts in Appian. At least for now.

Were you able to integrate CyberArc with Appian Cloud?

Alas we're using cloud so I don't think we will have the ability to run custom scripts in the Appian installation folders like this. I'll reach out to Appian Support regarding this when I'm ready to proceed - thanks for the feedback.

No Mike, I guess the best solution for this is to run it through scripting/ shell scripting. So the following steps can be performed to get it done through script:

Run configure.bat at <APPIAN_HOME>/_admin/_scripts/configure
select 6 - Tools
Select 1 - Encode password for JBoss Security Domain
Read Password from a file in certain location. (There will be multiple passwords. So step 4-7 will be repeated for each password.)
Provide a password to be encoded
The encoded password will be returned.
Update this password in datasource configuration files in JBoss from existing one.

As Start and stop of Application Server is through .bat file so we can execute that through Task Scheduler.

Just following up to see if you ever found any solutions for this, as our team is embarking on something similar soon.
