Modify the AffWebServices.properties File for WebSphere

The AffWebServices.properties file contains all the initialization parameters for Federation Web Services. For deploying FWS, set only the parameter that specifies the location of the WebAgent.conf file.

To configure the AffWebServices.properties file

1. Navigate to the AffWebServices.properties file. For ServletExec, go to web_agent_home/affwebservices/WEB-INF/classes.
2. Set the AgentConfigLocation parameter to the location of the WebAgent.conf file at each partner site.
   • Windows example:

     C:\\Program Files\\ca\\webagent\\bin\\IIS\\WebAgent.conf

     Note: Federation Web Services is a Java component, so the Windows paths must contain double backslashes.

   • UNIX example:

     server_home/servers/https-hostname/config/WebAgent.conf

   • Windows example for the SPS federation gateway

     sps_home\\proxy-engine\\conf\\defaultagent\\WebAgent.conf

   • UNIX example for the SPS federation gateway

     sps_home/proxy-engine/conf/defaultagent/WebAgent.conf

3. Repeat this procedure for each application server where the Web Agent Option Pack is installed.

Accept the default values for the rest of the settings.
