Limits:

• Proxy (uppercase P)
• Standalone (uppercase S)

PROXY_HOST_NAME

(Proxy mode only) Identifies the fully qualified domain name of the backend server where CA SiteMinder® Federation Standalone forwards the requests for federated resources. Define this setting using the syntax server_name.domain:port.

Example: myserver.mycompany.ca.com:5555

If you use this properties file on more than one CA SiteMinder® Federation Standalone system and these systems use the same proxy, set this host name to the same value for each system. CA SiteMinder® Federation Standalone and the proxy host must be in the same domain.

Apache Server Information

APACHE_SERVER_NAME

Specifies the name of the Apache web server.

If you plan to use the properties file on more than one system in a network, set this value to a unique name for each system where you run an unattended configuration. The same server name for more than one system may cause conflicts.

APACHE_ADMIN_EMAIL

Indicates the email address of the CA SiteMinder® Federation Standalone administrator. This setting is required by the Apache server installed as part of CA SiteMinder® Federation Standalone. Apache uses the administrator’s e-mail address in its default error messages when problems are encountered. The e-mail address is set with the ServerAdmin directive and can be any valid e-mail address. The events forwarded to this address are server-specific errors and warnings for the Apache server. The messages are not related to federation.
