FieldDescription

Numeric UNIX User-ID

A numeric UNIX user ID (USS UID) for the file system.

If you are unsure of the USS UID, consult your security administrator.

Important

The USS UID requires update access to the root directory.

Numeric UNIX Group-ID

A numeric UNIX group ID (USS GID) for the file system.

If you are unsure of the USS GID, consult your security administrator.

Root directory for Common RESTful API for TOMCAT file path

The location of the Tomcat and Java directories for the CRA .

Additional directory levels might be appended to the path provided.

Important

  • You must specify an absolute path without any symbolic links in the path or the Installation System will not create the files properly.
  • Specify a unique file path (not a common root file path or a path entered for other installations) to be used exclusively by CRA . This directory is deleted and redefined during the installation (by the CRAZFS job) to overwrite any older files.

TOMCAT host name

The host name by which you will access CRA . By default, this is the LPAR name where you complete the configuration. You can specify a different host name instead.

TOMCAT port number (HTTP)

The default port number for the Tomcat server used by CRA when you are using the HTTP protocol.

Specify the port number that you have reserved for CRA .

This value determines the URL for launching CRA . The URL will be:

TOMCAT SSL port number (SSL/TLS)

The default port number for the Tomcat server used by CRA when you are using the HTTPS protocol.

Specify the port number that you have reserved for CRA .

This value determines the URL for launching CRA . The URL will be:

TOMCAT AJP port number (SSL/TLS)

The default port number for the Tomcat server used by CRA when you are using the AJP protocol.

Specify the port number that you have reserved for CRA .

This value determines the URL for launching CRA . The URL will be:

ajp://localHost/LPAR>:specifiedPort/amiops/login
