Configure the Second Identity Management Server Properties File

Set the parameters for the second Identity Management Server instance.

Copy the properties file from the first Secure Proxy 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 Secure Proxy Server parameters.

General Information:

• The host names of the systems where you are installing the Identity Management servers
• The JBoss ID for the Identity Management Server you are installing.

Follow these steps:

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

   _cluster_peer_host

   Enter the host name of the server on which you are currently installing Identity Management.

   _jboss_server_id

   Enter a JBoss ID for the Identity Management Server you are installing. Create any unique ID. We recommend a value of "1" for your first Identity Management instance, "2" for your second instance, etc.

4. Leave all other parameter values as you set them for the first Identity Management server.
5. Back up the properties.sh file. Rename it to a logical name, for example, identitymanager2properties.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.
