Administering WebSphere Automation
You can manage your WebSphere Automation installation and configuration.
- Customizing the platform
As an administrator, you can customize the console to meet the needs of your enterprise.
- Managing users
Determine and implement the best approach for authenticating and managing users.
- Backing up and restoring
data
Back up your critical data. If you ever need to restore your WebSphere Automation installation and data later, you can restore them from the backup.
- Revoking or replacing the usage metering API
key
If you want a new usage metering API key, revoke the API key for usage metering and generate a new key.
- Changing the encryption
keys
You can change the keys that WebSphere Automation uses to encrypt data.
- Configuring to use a proxy
server
If your environment requires an HTTP proxy to contact an external site, configure the CVE/PSIRT monitor and fix manager with your proxy settings to enable communication with
ibm.com. - Modifying Platform UI route with custom
hostname and certificates
If you want to modify the Platform UI route with your own custom hostname and certificates, make changes to the WebSphereAutomation custom resource.
- Changing Cloud Pak administration console
certificates
You can change the certificates for the cp-console (the foundational service for the WebSphere Automation UI) in the
ibm-common-servicesnamespace. - Customizing event notifications
You can define custom notifications for events that occur in WebSphere Automation. Supported notification actions include sending emails and invoking webhooks, which can be used to automate processes that respond to events.
- Bringing your own CA
Certificate
You can replace the WebSphere Automation self-signed certificate authority (CA) certificate with your own CA certificate.
