Deploy the Administration Console

The Administration Console is a browser-based interface that enables you to customize the server configurations and manage the deployed system.

Note: If you deploy the Administration Console on IBM WebSphere 7.0, 8.0 or 8.5, then see the instructions in appendix, Deploy Administration Console on IBM WebSphere.

To manage CA Risk Authentication by using Administration Console, verify that the Administration Console can access the system where the CA Risk Authentication Server is installed by its hostname.

Follow these steps::

  1. Deploy arcotadmin.war in the appropriate directory on the application server.

    Note: The deployment procedure depends on the application server that you are using. See your application server vendor documentation for detailed instructions.
    Example: In the case of Apache Tomcat, you must deploy the WAR file at <APP_SERVER_HOME>\webapps\.

  2. (For 32-bit WebSphere Only): Configure reload of the Admin class when the application files are updated. Perform the following steps:
    1. Navigate to Application, Enterprise Applications, and then access the Admin settings page.
    2. Under Class loader order, select the Classes loaded with local class loader first (parent last) option.
    3. Under WAR class loader policy, select the Single class loader for application.
    4. Click Apply.
    5. Restart the Admin application.
  3. Restart the application server.
  4. To verify that the console is successfully deployed, do the following steps:
    1. Navigate to the following location: 
      <install_location>\Arcot Systems\logs\
    2. Open the arcotadmin.log file in any editor and locate the following lines:
      • 2.0.3
      • Arcot Administration Console Configured Successfully.

      Note: These lines indicate that your Administration Console was deployed successfully.

    3. Also ensure that the log files do not contain any FATAL and WARNING messages.
    4. Close the file.
