Web Services Properties

The web services properties are as follows:

Enable Execution

Check to enable the Task Execution Web Service (TEWS) for the environment.

By default, TEWS is disabled.

Note: If you enable TEWS for the environment, restart the application server.

Enable WSDL Generation

Check to enable WSDL generation for the environment.

WSDL generation is enabled by default. The URL to perform WSDL generation is not accessible when WSDL generation is disabled.

Note: When generating WSDLs in a clustered environment, run one Policy Server and one CA IdentityMinder Server, and stop all other Policy Servers and CA IdentityMinder Servers within the cluster.

Enable admin_id (allow impersonation)

Specifies whether TEWS supports impersonation.

When this option is selected, TEWS uses the admin ID found in the SOAP message sent to the web service to authenticate the request.

When this option is not selected, the ID of the user who generated the request is used to authenticate the request.

SiteMinder Authentication

When CA IdentityMinder is integrated with SiteMinder, you can configure SiteMinder to secure the URL for web services.

Note: For more information about using SiteMinder to protect a web service URL, see the CA SiteMinder Policy Server Configuration Guide.
