Policy Server Registry Keys

The Policy Server registry keys are located at one of the following:

• (Windows) HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Netegrity\SiteMinder\CurrentVersion\PolicyServer.
• (UNIX) The sm.registry file.

  The default location of this file is siteminder_home/registry.

  siteminder_home

  Specifies the Policy Server installation path.

Consider the following:

• Specific circumstances can require that you do one of the following:
  • Modify an existing registry key.
  • Create a registry key and assign a value.

  In these cases, the SOA Security Manager documentation details the required steps.

• In all other cases, we recommend that you modify Policy Server settings using the Administrative UI or the Policy Server Management Console, as detailed in the SOA Security Manager documentation. Do not modify Policy Server settings using the registry keys, unless instructed by SOA Security Manager Support or the documentation.
