Configuration file reference
The way you use configuration files controls the operation of the Verify Identity Access servers.
Each configuration file contains sections that are called stanzas.
Server configuration files are ASCII text-based and contain
stanza entries. Configuration files are processed only when the servers
start. The following configuration files are currently used by Verify Identity Access:
- pd.conf
- The configuration file that is used by the authentication server to configure the IBM Verify Identity Access runtime. For details about the stanzas contained in this configuration file, see IBM Verify Identity Access runtime configuration file.
- [instance-]ivacld.conf
- The configuration file that is used
to configure an Verify Identity Access authorization
server instance.
[instance-]represents the name of the specified authorization server instance. If an authorization server instance name contains an empty string, the configuration file is called ivacld.conf. For details about the stanzas contained in this configuration file, see Authorization server configuration file. - ivmgrd.conf
- The configuration file that is used to configure the Verify Identity Access policy server. For details about the stanzas contained in this configuration file, see Policy server configuration file.
- ldap.conf
- The configuration file that is used by the LDAP-based server to configure the LDAP-based user registry. For details about the stanzas that are contained in this configuration file, see LDAP server configuration file.
- aznAPI.conf
- A template configuration file that is used to configure any Verify Identity Access resource manager. For details about the stanzas that are contained in this template file, see Resource manager configuration files.
