Configuring a JVM for the Tomcat Server
To configure a JVM that will run the Tomcat server, perform the following steps. The location of the JVM is always determined by the administrator who configures the Tomcat server. Ensure that JAVA_HOME and PATH environment variables are set.
To configure a JVM for the Tomcat server
- Install the cryptography library (cryptoj.jar) in the following location:
- (Microsoft Windows) jdkDirectory\jre\lib\ext
- (UNIX) jdkDirectory/jre/lib/ext
- Perform the following modifications to the java.security file.
Add a new line to the end of providers' definition list, and ensure that the provider is sequentially numbered.
security.provider.x=com.rsa.jsafe.provider.JsafeJCE
x specifies the order in which the security providers will be searched.
The java.security file can be found at:- (Microsoft Windows) jdkDirectory\jre\lib\security
- (UNIX) jdkDirectory/jre/lib/security
Note
The RSA provider can be the last provider in the security providers list, except when BMC Atrium Single Sign-On is running in FIPS mode. For this configuration, the RSA provider must be first, with the remaining ones renumbered.
security.provider.1=com.rsa.jsafe.provider.JsafeJCE
For more information on configuring JVM for running the Tomcat server, see tomcat-6.0-doc and tomcat-7.0-doc.

Might want to consider moving this page to the end of the regular installation instructions. We did a normal install of SSO on linux and had to configure a JVM for Tomcat after the install in order to just be able to see the SSO Admin Console.
Hi Nicholas,
Sorry for the delayed response.
I have added a note with reference to this topic at step 8 in the installation topic: Installing BMC Atrium Single Sign-On as a standalone. So, while installing BMC Atrium SSO on Linux servers, the user can go through this page.
Thanks!
