CA Risk Authentication Windows Installation Guide › Deploy the Administration Console

Deploy the Administration Console

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

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

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

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. (32-bit WebSphere): Configure reload of the Admin class when the application files are updated.
   1. Navigate to Application, Enterprise Applications, and 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
      • Administration Console Configured Successfully.

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

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