General Policy Server Information

The General Information section allows you to set the following:

• DEFAULT_INSTALL_DIR

  Specifies the location of the Policy Server installation.

• DEFAULT_SHORTCUTS_DIR

  Specifies the location of the SiteMinder program icon.

  Example: C:\\Documents and Settings\\All Users\\Start or /SiteMinder

  Note: The icon feature only works on Windows.

• DEFAULT_JRE_ROOT

  Specifies the JRE installation location.

• DEFAULT_BROWSER

  (UNIX only) Specifies the installation location of the browser.

  Example: /usr/dt/appconfig/netscape/netscape

• DEFAULT_SMPROFILE_CHOICE

  (UNIX only) Specifies if smprofile.ksh should be added to the .profile file. Specify true for yes; specify false for no.

• DEFAULT_ENCRYPTKEY

  Allows you to enter a cleartext encryption key, which secures data sent between the Policy Server and the policy store.

  Note: If you comment out the ENCRYPTED_ENCRYPTKEY parameter and uncomment DEFAULT_ENCRYPTKEY, then the unattended installer uses the cleartext encrypt key value from DEFAULT_ENCRYPTKEY. The DEFAULT_ENCRYPTKEY parameter is commented out by default after the initial Policy Server installation.

• ENCRYPTED_ENCRYPTKEY

  Shows the encrypted encryption key, which secures data sent between the Policy Server and the policy store. You entered this key during the initial Policy Server installation and cannot change it.

  Important! Do not modify this encrypted value since any change will break the communication between the Policy Server and policy store when you run an unattended installation.

  If you comment out the DEFAULT_ENCRYPTKEY parameter and uncomment ENCRYPTED_ENCRYPTKEY, then the unattended installer uses the encrypted encryption key value from ENCRYPTED_ENCRYPTKEY.

• CA_SM_PS_FIPS140

  Specifies the Policy Server's FIPS mode of operation.

  Values: COMPAT, MIGRATE, or ONLY

  Important! Do not modify the value if you are reinstalling the Policy Server.
