I suppose you might have a monitoring app on another server that detects when the web server is trying to start or restart, and does an https call to set the password. However, as it is in continuous use, it can be read from the vm pages in memory or on swap. Just what sort of attack are you worried about: stolen physical media, hacker invasion with root, ???

NAME

monitor [ -Z serverID ] [ -D rootdn ] [ -w password ] [ -b basedn ] [-P protocol] [-h] DESCRIPTION
Retrieves performance monitoring information. To run this script, the server must be running. OPTIONS
A summary of options is included below: -Z Server Identifier The server ID of the Directory Server instance. If there is only one instance on the system, this option can be skipped. -D Root DN The Directory Manager DN, or root DN. If not specified, the script will search the server instance configuration for the value. -w password The rootdn password. -b basedn The DN of a backend from cn=config. -P Protocol The connection protocol to connect to the Directory Server. Protocols are STARTTLS, LDAPS, LDAPI, and LDAP. If this option is skipped, the most secure protocol that is available is used. For LDAPI, AUTOBIND is also available for the root user. -h Display the usage. EXAMPLE
monitor -P STARTTLS Note: security must be enabled to use protocol STARTTLS. If STARTTLS is not available it will default to next strongest/available protocol automatically. monitor -Z instance2 -D 'cn=directory manager' -w password -b 'cn=monitor,cn=userRoot,cn=ldbm database,cn=plugins,cn=config' Note: You only need to bind as the root DN if you want to look at a backend monitor.
