Important! Install this product on the computer that has the PeopleSoft Application Server installed.
The installation wizard requires the following information:
Specifies the directory where the product files are installed.
Default:
Windows:
C:\Program Files\CA\peoplesoft
UNIX:
<home-dir>/CA/peoplesoft
Specifies the PeopleSoft Application Server home directory.
Default:
Windows:
drive:\peoplesoft_application_server_folder\
UNIX:
/peoplesoft_application_server_folder/
The installation wizard installs the agent on your PeopleSoft server.
Follow these steps:
ca-erp-peoplesoft-<version>-<operating_environmentprocessor_type>.exe
Note: To install using console, open a console window and then run the previous command with the -i console option.
Note: To install unattended, open a console window and then run the previous command with the “-i silent –f <installer_properties_file>” options. The installer properties file (ca-peoplesoft-installer.properties) is located in the install_config_info directory of the product.
Important! To install unattended, you must install the product using wizard or console once. The installer properties file is required for unattended installation. Before you perform the unattended installation, verify that the installer properties file is updated based on the host where you install the product.
The installation wizard installs the product on your PeopleSoft server.
Follow these steps:
ca-erp-peoplesoft-<version>-<operating_environmentprocessor_type>.bin

Before you perform the unattended installation, verify that the installer properties file is updated based on the host where you install the product.
Before you run the PeopleSoft agent configuration wizard, gather the following information:
To establish a connection between CA SSO Agent for Oracle PeopleSoft host and the Policy Server, you need to register the host with the Policy Server. After registration is complete, the registration tool creates the SmHost.conf file. After this file is created successfully, the client computer becomes a trusted host.
Specifies the name of a Policy Server administrator allowed to register the host with the Policy Server. This administrator should already be defined at the Policy Server and have the permission to register trusted hosts.
Specifies the Policy Server administrator account password.
Specifies that the Policy Server generates a new shared secret periodically, which is used to encrypt the communication to this product.
Specifies a unique name that represents the trusted host to the Policy Server. This name does not have to be the same as the physical client system that you are registering; it can be any unique name, for example, mytrustedhost.
Note: This name must be unique among trusted hosts and not match the trusted host name of any other Agent.
The name of the Host Configuration Object in the Policy Server that defines the connection between the trusted host and the Policy Server. For example, to use the default, enter DefaultHostSettings. In most cases, you will have created your own Host Configuration Object.
Note: This value must match the Host Configuration Object entry preconfigured on the Policy Server.
The IP address, or host name, and authentication port of the Policy Server where you are registering the host. The default port is 44442. If you do not provide a port, the default is used.
You can specify a non-default port number, but if your Policy Server is configured to use a non-default port and you omit it when you register a trusted host, the following error is displayed:
Registration Failed (bad ipAddress[:port] or unable to connect to Authentication server (-1)
Note also that if you specify a non-default port, that port is used for the Policy Server’s authentication, authorization, and accounting ports; however, the unified server responds to any Agent request on any port. The entry in the SmHost.conf file will look like:
policyserver="ip_address,5555,5555,5555"
Determines whether the Agent communicates with the Policy Server using certified Federal Information Processing Standard (FIPS) 140-2 compliant cryptographic libraries.
Specifies non-FIPS mode, which lets the Policy Server and the Agents read and write information using the existing CA SSO encryption algorithms. If your organization does not require the use of FIPS-compliant algorithms, the Policy Server and the Agents can operate in non-FIPS mode without further configuration.
Specifies full-FIPS mode, which requires that the Policy Server and Web Agents read and write information using only FIPS 140-2 algorithms.
Important! A CA SSO installation that is running in Full FIPS mode cannot interoperate with, or be backward compatible to, earlier versions of CA SSO, including all agents, custom software using older versions of the Agent API, and custom software using PM APIs or any other API that the Policy Server exposes. You must re-link all such software with the corresponding versions of the respective SDKs to achieve the required support for Full FIPS mode.
Specify the resource & action used in CA SSO policies.
Specifies a resource protected with an authentication scheme.
/psp/ps/?cmd=start
Specify the action configured for the above resource in CA SSO policies.
Values: GET, POST
Specify the agent object name used for protecting the above resource in CA SSO policies.
The agent object need not have 4.x capability because this product uses trusted host communication instead of 4.x communication.
Specify the Agent log file path and log level for configuring the agent logging.
Disables logging. Log files are not kept.
Records errors in initialization and communication only. These messages appear with ERR in the log file.
Important! The highest logging level we recommend for production environments is 1. Higher levels quickly produce large log files.
Records informational errors, possibly suggesting the cause of the problem. The specific cause is not always shown. These messages appear with INF in the log file.
Records debugging information. These messages appear with DBG in the log file.
Records extra information designed to locate problems in the library code. Use this setting only if directed to by CA Technical Support. These messages appear with XXX in the log file.
The configured settings are saved in the peoplecode.txt file.
Use the configuration wizard to configure the product.
Follow these steps:
In Windows:
<agent_install_dir>\install_config_info\ca-peoplesoft-config.exe
In UNIX:
<agent_install_dir>/install_config_info/ca-peoplesoft-config.bin
Note: To configure using console, open a console window and then run the previous command with the -i console option.
Note: To configure unattended, open a console window and then run the previous command with the “-i silent –f <configuration_properties_file>” options. The configuration properties file (ca-peoplesoft-configuration.properties) is located in the install_config_info directory of the product.
Important! To configure unattended, you must configure the product using wizard or console once. The configuration properties file is required for unattended configuration. Before you perform the unattended configuration, verify that the configuration properties file is updated based on the host where you configure the product.
