Installing SRC-ACP
SRC-ACP uses the SAE plug-in interface. You can install SRC-ACP on the same host as the SAE; doing so will simplify the SRC configuration. However, you may improve the performance of the SRC network by installing SRC-ACP on a separate host from the SAE.
The SRC-ACP package for Solaris platforms is located on the application library CD.
To install the SRC-ACP package:
- On the UNIX host where you will install SRC-ACP, log in as
root
.- Place the application library CD in the CD drive.
- Launch the pkgadd tool.
pkgadd -d /cdrom/cdrom0/ACP_for_SDX/UMCacpThe tool displays the license agreement.
- Press Enter to move through the agreement, and then enter y to accept the license agreement when prompted by the tool.
- Follow the prompt directions to accept the installation directory for the package, to permit the use of superuser scripts required for the package, and so on.
After you have installed the SRC-ACP application on a host, you must add the SRC-ACP configuration to the directory. To do so:
- On the SRC-ACP host, log in as
root
or as another authorized administrator.- Launch the local configuration tool from the ACP installation directory.
./opt/UMC/acp/etc/config -l&The local configuration tool window appears.
![]()
- Complete the fields in the local configuration tool window. Local Properties for SRC-ACP describes the fields on the Main tab and the Other tab.
- Click OK.
- A file called bootstrap,properties appears in the /opt/UMC/acp/etc folder, and the SRC-ACP configuration appears in the directory. The SRC software automatically sets some values for properties that do not appear in the local configuration tool window.
Local Properties for SRC-ACP
Use the fields in this section to configure the local properties for SRC-ACP.
Configuration Directory URL
Backup Configuration Directory URLs
- List of redundant directories.
- Value—Space-separated list of URLs; URLs have the format ldap://<host>:389
- Default—Unspecified
- Example—ldap://192.0.2.1:389/ ldap://192.0.2.3:389/
- Property name—Config.net.juniper.smgt.des.backup_provider_urls
Configuration Location
- Name of the object that contains the SRC-ACP configuration data.
- Value—/<objectName>
- Guidelines—This object appears in l=ACP, ou=staticConfiguration, o=Management, o=umc. Sensible choices for this field are the name of the host or the name of a given location. If you configure SRC-ACP redundancy, use the same name in the ACP configurations on both hosts.
- Default—/config
- Example—bostonConfig
- Property name—Config.ACP.namespace
Directory Base DN
- Guidelines—If you are storing non-SRC data in the directory, and that data changes frequently whereas the SRC data does not, you may need to adjust the default value to improve performance. For optimal performance, set the value to the DN of an entry superior to both the SRC data and the changing non-SRC data.
- Default—o=umc
- Example—o=umc
- Property name—Config.net.juniper.smgt.des.event_baseDN
Configuration Directory Authentication DN
- DN of the directory entry that defines the username with which the SRC component accesses the directory.
- Value—<DN>
- Example—cn=nic, ou=Components, o=Operators,<base>
- Default—cn=conf, o=Operators,<base>
- Property name—Config.java.naming.security.principal
Configuration Directory Password
- Password with which SRC-ACP accesses the directory.
- Value—<password>
- Guidelines—The password can be encoded in base64 and not visible in plain text. To use an encoded value, use the format {BASE64} <encoded-value>.
- Default—conf
- Example—secret
- Property name—Config.java.naming.security.credentials
Connect Timeouts (s)
- Maximum time that the directory eventing system (DES) waits for the directory to respond.
- Value—Number of seconds in the range 1-2147483647
- Default—10
- Example—5
- Property name—Config.net.juniper.smgt.des.connect.timeout
Java Runtime Environment
- Path to the Java Runtime Environment (JRE).
- Value—Text string
- Guidelines—The SRC software requires a JRE that conforms to the Java 2 specification. The SRC software has been tested with Sun's JRE. Check the SRC Release Notes for information about which version of the Sun JRE is distributed with the SRC software. Other JREs should work but have not been tested with the SRC software.
- Default—../jre/bin/java (path for the JRE that is distributed with the SRC software and installed with the other SRC components)
- Property name—Acp.java
