Required. Determines if certificate validation, hostname verification, and certificate authentication are performed by CSA when making a secure connection (only using HTTPS) with an application or a component of CSA. Examples of an application include Operations Orchestration or a resource provider. Examples of a component of CSA include the Marketplace Portal and the Identity Management component. Other non-HTTP connections that have been configured to be secure are not affected by this property. For example, secure connections to the database, LDAP server, or SMTP server are not affected.

By default, this property is set to false. That is, when CSA establishes a secure connection with another application or component, the connection will only be encrypted. No validation, verification, or authentication is performed. This mode should only be used during post-installation configuration or when troubleshooting problems with certificates. This mode should NOT be used in a production environment.

When set to true, when CSA establishes a secure connection with another application or component, the following occurs:

• The connection will be encrypted
• Certificate validation - Checks that the certificate used by the application/component has not expired
• Hostname verification - Checks that the certificate hostname matches the URL hostname of the application/component to which CSA is connecting
• Certificate authentication - Checks that the certificate or the root certificate used to sign the certificate has been imported into CSA's JRE truststore (for example, CSA_JRE_HOME/lib/security/cacerts)

Default: 50 (MB)

csa.war.images.directory.byteLimit

A total size limit for all images or icons that are uploaded into CSA_HOME/jboss-as/standalone/deployments/csa.war/images. The limit is used to prevent exhausting of server disk space through image upload in UI.

Unit: bytes.

Default: 500000000 bytes (500 MB)

csa.war.images.directory.smallFileByteOverhead

Used when computing space occupied by existing image/icon files (see above csa.war.images.directory.byteLimit). For each file in the images directory, a value of this property is added to its size to account for the overhead of small files on the file system.

Required. The encrypted password of the CSA keystore (see Encrypt a password for instructions on encrypting passwords). An encrypted password is preceded by ENC without any separating spaces and is enclosed in parentheses.

Default: ENC(<encrypted_value>)
where the default value of <encrypted_value> is the encrypted value of "changeit".

Optional. The maximum number of service requests the service request processor can process when it checks the start and end dates of submitted subscriptions.

Default: 100

Optional. How often, in milliseconds, the service request processor checks the start and end dates of submitted subscriptions.

Default: 5000 (5 seconds)

Optional. Enable or disable auditing, which tracks user activities and system-generated events. Messages are logged to the CSA_AUDIT_EVENT table in the database.

Default: true (enabled)

Required. This property is set during installation and must not be changed. The location of the JBoss log file that records when the CSA service was stopped. Used for auditing purposes.

Default: CSA_HOME/jboss‑as/bin/shutdown.log

Optional. Defines a custom HTTP header used to capture the originating IP address of a REST API call. If this property is disabled (commented out) or not set to a value, the standard HTTP header X-Forwarded-For is used to capture the originating IP address. If the originating IP address is not captured by either this custom or the standard header, CSA fetches the originating IP address from the incoming request. The originating IP address is used for auditing.

CSA sets the following precedence when capturing the originating IP address of a REST API call:

1. Uses the custom HTTP header (if defined)
2. Uses the X-Forwarded-For header
3. Fetches from the incoming request

If this property is set to a custom HTTP header, CSA checks if this custom HTTP header is defined (set to the originating IP address) in the REST API call. If this property is not set or if the custom header is not defined, CSA checks if the X-Forwarded-For header is defined in the REST API call. If the X-Forwarded-For header is not defined, CSA fetches the originating IP address from the incoming request. CSA does not validate the captured value (if the value is an IP address and if it is a valid IP address).

The following is a list of CSA REST API types and which ones do and do not capture the originating IP address:

• Legacy CSA 3.x APIs: originating IP address IS CAPTURED
• Consumer (Consumption) APIs that include onBehalf parameter in the Response Content Type (i.e. Consumer APIs that use the POST, PUT, or DELETE methods): originating IP address IS CAPTURED
• Consumer (Consumption) APIs that do not include onBehalf parameter in the Response Content Type (i.e. Consumer APIs that use the GET method): originating IP address IS NOT CAPTURED
• Management (Consumption) APIs: originating IP address IS NOT CAPTURED

The originating IP address is stored in the ORIGIN_IP field of the RPT_AUDIT_EVENT_V view and the ORIGIN_IP column of the CSA_AUDIT_EVENT table. If the originating IP address is not captured, the field or column is empty.

com.hp.csa.ExportSvcOffering.THREAD_WAKEUP_TIME

Defines the background service wakeup time to export non-posted offerings, subscriptions and instances into elasticsearch. When the CSA service starts, the background service wakes up. If there are no records to be exported to elasticsearch then the background services dies immediately. Otherwise the background service exports records into elasticsearch in the batches of the property defined in com.hp.csa.ExportSvcOffering.FETCH_SIZE. The background service continues to run until it processes all the non-posted records available in the CSA database.

If the background service is not running, it wakes-up again according to the time defined in this property. The value of this property should be in milliseconds.

com.hp.csa.ExportSvcOffering.FETCH_SIZE

Defines the number of records to be processed at a time. The SQL used to fetch the records from the CSA database, uses this property value to limit the number of records that can be fetched from the database and then exported to elasticsearch.

com.hp.csa.plugin.cloudos.util.TokenCache.TIMEOUT

Identity Management component token cache timeout, in milliseconds.

Every REST call to CSA (such as for provisioning) is authenticated by Identity Management. CSA uses trustId to get the authentication token from Identity Management. Because these REST calls can be more frequent, this property allows you to define the cache timeout to prevent enormous sizes during the REST call’s authentication lifecycle.

Default value: 300000 (5 minutes)

Value 0 disables cache

com.hp.csa.import.BUILD_ARTIFACT_RELATIONSHIP

Default: yes (enabled)

Required if csa.provider.es.exists is enabled (set to yes). The user used by the Elasticsearch service to authenticate requests coming from CSA. It is recommended that you create a user specifically for this purpose.

If the CSA built-in consumer user is disabled or another user is used, either another built-in user or LDAP user must be configured. If using a built-in user, this user must have the SERVICE_CONSUMER role configured. If using an LDAP user, this user must be assigned to the Service Consumer role.

Default: consumer

Required if csa.provider.es.exists is enabled (set to yes). The encrypted password of the csa.provider.es.authUser user.

The password should be encrypted (see Encrypt a password for instructions). An encrypted password is preceded by ENC without any separating spaces and is enclosed in parentheses.

Default: <encrypted password of the consumer user>

Required if csa.provider.es.exists is enabled (set to yes). The name of the organization to which the csa.provider.es.authUser user belongs.

The organization is used only for authentication purposes. The Elasticsearch service will index the service offerings, service instances, or subscriptions for all organizations. However, global search results for a Marketplace Portal user will be limited to the service offerings, service instances, or subscriptions of the organization to which the user belongs and to which the user has access.

If the CSA built-in CONSUMER organization is disabled or removed, the csa.provider.es.authUser, csa.provider.es.authPassword, and csa.provider.es.authOrganization properties must be updated to use a valid user and organization.

Default: CONSUMER

csa.provider.es.idmURL

Required if csa.provider.es.exists is enabled (set to yes). The URL used to generate Identity Management component tokens for Elasticsearch service authentication. If a CSA cluster is configured for high availability using a load balancer, localhost must be changed to the hostname or IP address of the system on which the load balancer is running.

Default: https://localhost:8444/idm-service

Required if csa.provider.es.exists is enabled (set to yes). The fully-qualified domain name of the system on which the HPE Search Service is running or localhost.

Default: localhost

Required if csa.provider.es.exists is enabled (set to yes). The port used to connect to the system on which the HPE Search Service is running.

Default: 9000

Required if csa.provider.es.exists is enabled (set to yes). The protocol used by the REST API to connect to the system on which the HPE Search Service is running.

Default: https

Required. Enable or disable access to the LDAP access point configuration in the Cloud Service Management Console.

By default, the property is set to false and the CSA administrator can configure the LDAP access point of any organization from the Cloud Service Management Console (the LDAP access point is typically configured when an organization is created in the Cloud Service Management Console). LDAP configuration includes fields for the LDAP Server Information, LDAP Attributes, and User Login Information in the Cloud Service Management Console. The LDAP access point is used by CSA for authentication and authorization.

For security reasons, you may not want to allow the CSA administrator to configure the LDAP access point from the Cloud Service Management Console. You can disable access to the LDAP access point fields for all organizations from the Cloud Service Management Console by setting this property to true (disabling access makes the LDAP configuration fields read-only in the Cloud Service Management Console). By disabling this access, only the system administrator or other privileged users on the CSA system can update the LDAP access point using the LDAP Configuration Tool. Refer to the LDAP Configuration Tool guide for more information about the LDAP Configuration Tool.

To enable access to the LDAP access point configuration in the Cloud Service Management Console, set this property to false. To disable access to the LDAP access point configuration in the Cloud Service Management Console, set this property to true.

Default: false

Required. Enable or disable service design, service offering, and catalog content archive verification.

By default, the property is set to false (verification is disabled), allowing the Cloud Service Management Console or Content Archive Tool to import a service design, service offering, or catalog content archive directly without verification.

When the property is set to true (verification is enabled), CSA verifies the digital signature of the content archive, validates the date of the certificate used to sign the content archive, and verifies that the content in the content archive has not been modified after it was signed. If the content archive fails one of these validation or verification checks, the content archive will not be imported into CSA.

When enabled, all imported service design, service offering, or catalog content archives must be signed. Refer to Signing the Content Archive for the steps required to sign a content archive.

Default: false

Optional. Enable or disable integration between CSA and  ITOC. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to true. To disable, either comment out the property or set it to false.

Default: (disabled)

Required if integration between CSA and  ITOC is enabled. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to the endpoint of the ITOC instance. The endpoint is the URL for connecting to the ITOC instance where <protocol> is the protocol used to communicate with the ITOC instance (for example, http or https), <itoc_host> is the hostname of the ITOC instance, and <port> is the port used to connect to the system on which ITOC is running.

Default: (disabled)

Required if integration between CSA and ITOC is enabled. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to the username used to log in to the ITOC instance.

Default: (disabled)

Required if integration between CSA and ITOC is enabled. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to the encrypted password used by the user defined in csa.ITOC.Notification.username to log in to the ITOC instance.

Default: (disabled)

Required if integration between CSA and ITOC is enabled. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to the tenant group to which the user defined in csa.ITOC.Notification.username belongs.

Default: (disabled)

Optional. Enable or disable integration v2 between CSA and  ITOC. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to true. To disable, either comment out the property or set it to false.

Default: (disabled)

Required if integration v2 between CSA and  ITOC is enabled. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to the endpoint of the ITOC instance. The endpoint is the URL for connecting to the ITOC instance where <protocol> is the protocol used to communicate with the ITOC instance (for example, http or https), <itoc_host> is the hostname of the ITOC instance, and <port> is the port used to connect to the system on which ITOC is running.

Default: (disabled)

Required if integration v2 between CSA and ITOC is enabled. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to the ITOC integration credentials. It is used to access ITOC public tenant to get the list of policies and maintenance windows.

Username is part of the configuration key and encrypted password is value of the configuration key.

(see Encrypt a password for instructions). An encrypted password is preceded by ENC without any separating spaces and is enclosed in parentheses.

Default: (disabled)

Required if integration v2 between CSA and ITOC is enabled. To enable, this property must be uncommented and and set to integration credentials for each consumer tenant of ITOC. Tenant is part of the configuration key, username is part of the configuration key and encrypted password is value of the configuration key.

Default: (disabled)

Required if integration v2 between CSA and ITOC is enabled. To enable, this property must be uncommented and set to connection timeout in milliseconds.

Default: (disabled)

Optional. The amount of inactivity, in minutes, that causes the Cloud Service Management Console session to time out.

Default: 60
