Configure IdM authentication in the Service Manager Server

To enable IdM authentication in the Service Manager Server, follow these steps:

  1. Add the following parameters to the Server's sm.ini file, which is located in the Server's RUN folder:

    idmssoenabled:1
    idmsigningkey:<value>
    
  2. Restart the Service Manager Server.

    Note The value of the idmsigningkey parameter is automatically encrypted after the Server is restarted. If you need to update the value later, remove the asterisk symbol (*) before the parameter name.

    The following is an example of the sm.ini file:

    shared_memory:32000000
    log:../logs/sm.log
    system:13080
    httpPort:13080
    sslConnector:0
