Configure Auto Startup

You configure auto startup to ensure that the Policy Server restarts automatically when the Solaris system is rebooted.

To configure auto startup

1. Modify the S98M script by replacing every instance of the string "nete_ps_root" with an explicit path to the SiteMinder installation directory.

   Example: /export/ca/siteminder

2. Change the directory to the siteminder installation directory.
3. Enter su and press ENTER.

   Note: Do not use the suse command.

   You are prompted for a password.

4. Enter the root password and press ENTER.
5. Enter $ cp S98sm /etc/rc2.d and press ENTER.

   s98sm automatically calls the stop-all and start-all executables, which stop and start the Policy Server's service when the Solaris system is rebooted.

Note: If you are using a local LDAP directory server as a policy store, you must configure the LDAP directory to start automatically before starting the Policy Server automatically.
