Configure the Second Provisioning Server Properties File

Set the parameters for the second Provisioning Server instance.

Copy the properties file from the first Provisioning Server instance and change only the parameters that are different for the second instance. Remember to rename and back up the new properties file after you complete the parameters.

You need the following information to complete the Provisioning Server parameters.

From the properties file of your first Provisioning Server instance:

• _impd_bind_pwd

Follow these steps:

1. On the first Provisioning Server system, copy the properties.sh file that you just configured.
2. Navigate to /tmp/properties.sh on the second Provisioning Server system. Replace the properties.sh file with the configured copy from the first Provisioning Server system.
3. Change the following parameter values:

   _impd_bind_pwd

   Enter the same password you entered for _impd_bind_pwd in the properties file for the first Provisioning Server instance.

4. Leave all other parameter values as you set them for the first Provisioning Server.
5. Back up the properties.sh file. Rename it to a logical name, for example, provisioning2properties.sh.

   Note: This file is critical for upgrades. We recommend that you back up this file. This file contains passwords, so be sure to save it in a secure location.

   Important! The original properties.sh file resides in a temp folder. If the server is shut down, the properties.sh file is discarded. Therefore, rename and back up this file before proceeding with any further installation or use of the system.
