CA Strong Authentication Administration Guide › Managing CA Strong Authentication Server Instances › Set Up Server Instances

Set Up Server Instances

The CA AuthMinder Instances page lists all the configured CA AuthMinder Server instances that share the same CA AuthMinder database as the Administration Console. The server instance that you configured earlier by using the WebFort Connectivity page polls the required information related to all other instances and passes it to the Administration Console, which in turn displays it on this page.

After you deploy an instance of CA AuthMinder Server, you may need to update the instance details. The CA AuthMinder Instances page enables you to refresh the server cache or shut down the specified instance. However to change instance-specific attributes, database connection parameters, log file details, or statistical data log parameters, click the instance name and then make the required changes on the instance’s page.

Typical instance management operations include:

• Refresh a Server Instance
• Change the Instance Name
• Manage CA AuthMinder Server Logging Configurations
• Configure Database Parameters
• Reading Instance Timestamp Details
• Shutting Down a Server Instance
• Restart a Server Instance

Note: You can also perform most of the operations that are discussed in this section by using the arwfutil command-line tool. See arwfutil: A Utility Tool for more information.
