Resolution

CAWilySiteMinderManager_12.0.1.4_Documentation.pdf

Step 1 should already have been done, you can check this steps by reviewing the <Policy_Server_home>/siteminder/config/XPS.cfg

CA.XPS::$AuditSMHandlers=libEventIntroscopeprovider.so

 

Steps 2 And 3 will need to be redone

To update Policy Server configuration, perform the following steps:

1. Launch the XPSConfig to add one of the following files to the Event Handlers list:

Navigate to the <policy server path>/bin directory and type ./XPSConfig and press ENTER. 

System prompts for “Enter Option (id, L or Q):”.

Type XPS and press ENTER.

System prompts for “Enter Option (D, V, F, # or Q):”.

Type 5 and press ENTER.

System prompts for “Enter Option (CQ):”.

Type C.

You are asked to enter a new value.

Enter the complete path for libEventIntroscopeprovider.so.

System prompts for “Enter Option (D, V, F, # or Q):”.

Type Q.

System prompts for “Enter Option (id, L or Q):”.

Type Q.

2. From the <installPath>/CAWilySiteMinderManager/

SiteMinderManagerAgent directory, copy the libIntroscopeNativeDataAPI.so to the policy server’s lib directory.

3. From the <installPath>/CAWilySiteMinderManager/

SiteMinderManagerAgent directory, copy the smm_env.sh file to the policy server root directory. Thereafter, source it in the Policy Server profile file ca_ps_env.ksh using the complete path.

 

For example, if SiteMinder Policy Server is installed in the /opt/netegrity/

siteminder directory, add the following line to the SiteMinder Policy Server profile file

. /opt/netegrity/siteminder/smm_env.sh

 

Support except of SMPS after following the steps above
