Web parameter: querySecurity

Web parameters change the behavior of the web clients that connect to the web tier. You can set some of these parameters from the web client login URL, some from the web tier configuration file (web.xml), and some from both.

Parameter

querySecurity

Description

Enabling this parameter causes the HPE Service Manager web tier to verify the security key of a URL query generated by the Service Manager server, and, if valid, authorize the query. Disabling this parameter allows any user with log on permissions, the skills to create a query, and access to the Service Manager URL to extract data from any Service Manager table.

Note This parameter is tied to the security parameter "querysecurity" (spelled with all lowercase letters). To disable the security hash feature, you must disable querySecurity in the web.xml file and querysecurity in the sm.ini file.
