<h1 class="topictitle1">Set the required configuration parameters</h1>
|
|
<div><p>Before starting the CIM server, you should set several configuration
|
|
properties using the <span class="parmname">cimconfig</span> command.</p>
|
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />In particular, you need to determine how you are going to specify
|
|
your client authentication. You can use any of the following methods:<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
|
<img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><ul><li>Use Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) certificate-based authentication</li>
|
|
<li>Use Basic or Kerberos authentication.</li>
|
|
<li><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Use Basic or Kerberos for authentication while using SSL
|
|
to encrypt CIM data between the client and the server.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></li>
|
|
</ul><img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" />
|
|
<p>Pegasus 2.5 supports SSL for the following connections:</p>
|
|
<ul><li>External connections over SSL-secured ports for CIM Client connections.</li>
|
|
<li>For the connections with a CIM Export client.</li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />To use SSL, ensure that the Enable HTTPS Connection (enableHttpsConnection)
|
|
property is set to <kbd class="userinput">true</kbd> (the default setting). This
|
|
property allows to use HTTPS TCP/IP communication. An HTTPS connection has
|
|
better security than HTTP. You can use SSL by itself or with Basic or Kerberos
|
|
authentication.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />Set the HTTP Authentication (httpAuthType) property to specify
|
|
the type of authentication to use. This property can be set to two values:
|
|
Basic, or Kerberos. Basic authentication does not protect passwords; therefore,
|
|
it is recommended that you use basic authentication only with SSL. <img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
|
<div class="p"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" /><div class="remember"><span class="remembertitle">Remember:</span> Most CIM clients support Basic authentication
|
|
but not Kerberos authentication. Ensure that you know which type of authentication
|
|
the CIM clients in your environment support before you configure the CIM server.</div>
|
|
<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></div>
|
|
<div class="p"><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />You can use the <span class="parmname">cimconfig</span> command to
|
|
set the current configuration properties or the planned configuration properties
|
|
of the CIM server. You can change the following properties in the current
|
|
configuration properties:<ul><li>shutdownTimeout</li>
|
|
<li>logLevel</li>
|
|
<li>traceComponents</li>
|
|
<li>traceFilePath</li>
|
|
<li><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />traceLevel<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></li>
|
|
</ul>
|
|
<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></div>
|
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />These properties are <dfn class="term">dynamic</dfn>—that is, when you
|
|
change these properties, the changes take place immediately. You do not need
|
|
to restart the CIM server to carry out the changes. You can update
|
|
the current configuration properties only while the CIM server is running.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
|
|
<p><img src="./delta.gif" alt="Start of change" />All of the properties can be changed in the planned configuration
|
|
properties, whether the CIM server is running or stopped. If the planned configuration
|
|
properties are changed, those changes will not take effect until the CIM server
|
|
is restarted. When the CIM server is started, the planned configuration properties
|
|
become the current configuration properties.<img src="./deltaend.gif" alt="End of change" /></p>
