Adding a Server

To create the configuration for a new server:

  1. In the General Configuration window, define all the servers which the File Access Manager services will be installed on and whether the installed server is a production server (Prod) or a disaster recovery server (DR). These servers should include DR servers and High Availability duplicate servers, if required. This does not include the Windows file server activity monitors; they are added automatically in the installation process and are not displayed.

  2. For each server:

    1. In the Server FQDN field, enter the server’s Fully Qualified Domain Name (FQDN).

    2. In the Server Local Name field, enter the server’s short name (NetBIOS host name).

    1. In the Installation Path field, enter the installation path. This becomes the SAILPOINT_HOME environment variable on the installation server. This is the path in which the File Access Manager services will be installed.

    2. In the Logs Path field, enter the logs path. This becomes the SAILPOINT_HOME_LOGS environment variable on the installation server. This is the central folder, in which all File Access Manager logs will be written.

    3. If this server is designated as a disaster recovery server, select the Disaster Recovery check box. For more information about Disaster Recovery servers, read the File Access Manager Disaster Recovery guide.

  3. Click Add. The server configuration that you specified copies to the Server List.

    Note: File Access Manager services use SSL communication.

  4. Within the Server List, a user can edit an existing server. Only the Sever FQDN and the Server Local Name are editable.

  5. Click Next.
