Management Root

On the appliance, you can use the local management interface to access the Management Root file structure.

Important: Do not create ibm_security_logout under junction_root. Creating this file triggers LMI session logout.
The file structure is available on the Manage Reverse Proxy Management Root page for each instance. To open this Management Root page and access the file structure from the LMI web interface, you must:
  1. Select Web > Manage > Reverse Proxy from the top menu. The Reverse Proxy management page displays.
  2. Click the instance that you want to manage from the available list of Instance Names.
  3. Select Manage > Management root. The Manage Reverse Proxy Management Root page for the selected instance displays with the available file structure.
The available directories include:
management
This directory contains the management template files. For example: login.html.
errors
This directory contains all of the error files for the WebSEAL instance. The name of the error file corresponds to the corresponding error code for the error. See Secure reverse proxy messages for a complete list of errors.
oauth
This directory contains the error response pages for the OAuth EAS.
junction-root
This directory contains the files which are served by the WebSEAL local junction.
pkmspublic
This directory contains custom template files, accessible at the URI defined by the pkmspublic-uri configuration entry. It can be used to store files which are referenced by management or error files.
Note:
  • Unauthenticated users are allowed to access these files. It is not possible at control access using an authorization policy.
  • These files are cached in memory by WebSEAL and as such only smaller files should be stored in this location. There is a fixed size limit of 2Gb for individual files.
  • Any files with a '.html', '.css' or a '.js' filename extension will be filtered for embedded macro’s. See Macro resources for customizing response pages for a list of supported macro’s.
  • A flat directory structure is used to store all locale specific files. Sub-directories are not supported.
