Run the Configuration Wizard for a Domino Web Agent on Windows

Before you configure the Agent, you may want to register the system where the Agent is installed as a trusted host; however, you can do this at a later time.

• web_agent_home

  Indicates the directory where the Web Agent is installed.

  Default (Windows installations): C:\Program Files\CA\webagent

  Default (UNIX installations): /opt/ca/webagent

To configure a Domino Web Agent

1. If necessary, start the Web Agent Configuration Wizard.

   The default method is to select Start, Programs, SiteMinder, Web Agent Configuration Wizard. If you've placed the Wizard shortcut in a non-default location, the procedure will be different.

   Important! If you are running this wizard on Windows Server 2008, run the executable file with Administrator permissions, even if you are logged into the system as an Administrator. For more information, see the release notes for your SiteMinder component.

2. If you have already done host registration, skip to the next step. Otherwise, select the option to skip host registration, then click Next.

   For information on registering the trusted host, see the installation chapter for your platform.

3. In the Select the Web server(s) dialog box, select the radio button for the Domino Web Sever and click Next.
4. In the Domino Web Server Path dialog box, specify the location of the notes.ini file, such as C:\Lotus\Domino\notesdata, then click Next.

   Note: The installation automatically writes the path to the WebAgent.conf in the notes.ini file.

5. Select the Web server instances that you want to configure with Web Agents.

   If you have already configured a server with a Web Agent and you are running the Configuration Wizard to configure additional Web servers instances, the Wizard displays the Select One or More Instances to Overwrite dialog box. This dialog box lists the Web servers that you have previously configured.

   1. Select one of the following:
      • Overwrite--replaces the existing configuration of server instance with the new one.
      • Preserve--keeps the existing web server's configuration without changing it.

      Important! If you uncheck a previously configured server, the Web Agent will be removed from this server.

   2. Click Next.
6. In the Agent Configuration Object field, enter the name of the Agent Configuration Object for this Web server instance, then click Next.

   This name must match an Agent Configuration Object already defined at the Policy Server. For example, to use the default enter DominoDefaultSettings.

7. In the Web Server Configuration Summary dialog box, confirm that the configuration settings are correct, then click Install.

   The Web Agent files are installed.

8. Click Done when the installation is complete.
9. Enable the Web Agent:
   1. Open the WebAgent.conf file, located in where you installed the Domino Web server root directory.
   2. Set the EnableWebAgent parameter to YES.
   3. Save the file.
