Functions of the amsfoconfig Script
The amsfoconfig script reads the amsfo.conf configuration file and then configures an Access Manager deployment for session failover by performing these functions:
-
Configures a new site. The script uses the Access Manager instances in the platform server list and the load balancer information from the amsfo.conf file to create a new site for the Access Manager session failover deployment. The script modifies the existing platform server list, so that after the site is configured, all server entries under the platform server list then belong to the site.
For example, http://server1.example.com:80|01 changes to http://server1.example.com:80|01|10, if the default value of 10 is used as the SiteID.
-
Modifies the existing Realm/DNS alias list. The script appends the host name of the load balancer to the list. This host name is obtained from the lbServerHost variable of the amsfo.conf file.
-
Loads session failover configuration XML into Directory Server. The script dynamically generates the session configuration XML file based on the configuration information and loads the generated XML into Directory Server. This information corresponds to the Secondary Configuration Instance under Session in the Access Manager Console.
The following table lists the Access Manager session failover scripts and configuration files.
