Creating a startup configuration member

Because the UIM server requires a startup configuration member, you must create a member for the new UIM server.

To create a startup configuration member

1. Locate the #NORMAL member in the UIM sample library.

2. Copy #NORMAL from your product sample library into your configuration file, and rename the copied member.
   The following figure shows the startup configuration member. hlq is the high-level qualifier that you specified during installation.

   <bmchttp>
       <bmc_parm id="PORT" value="9999" />
       <bmc_parm id="AUTH_TIMEOUT_SECS" value="1800" />
       <bmc_parm id="AFF_TIMEOUT_SECS" value="1800" />
       <bmc_parm id="HFS_DATASET" value="hlq.HFS" />
       <bmc_parm id="ALLOW_NETCMD" value="YES" />
       <bmc_parm id="ENCRYPTION_LEVEL" value="CREDENTIALS-IF" />
       <bmc_parm id="USS_HFS_ROOT" value="/tmp/bmcuim" />
   </bmchttp>

3. Edit the new startup configuration member by changing the following variables as needed:

   Variable	Definition	Accepted value	Reference
   PORT	Port value for the UIM server	Numeric value from 1 through 65535 where the numeric value chosen is unique on the hosts where this configuration member is used	Changing-the-port-number
   AUTH_TIMEOUT_SECS	Security authorization timeout for the console	Numeric value in seconds	Changing the security authorization timeout feature temporarily
   AFF_TIMEOUT_SECS	Idle timeout period for affinity tasks	Unique numeric value in seconds	Changing-the-idle-timeout-for-affinity-tasks
   HFS_DATASET	BMCHFS server-side storage data set name	PDSE data set name for storing the BMCHFS data	Changing-the-data-set-name-for-BMCHFS-server-side-storage
   ALLOW_NETCMD	Whether to enable or disable network browser command interface	YES (default), NO, or AUTHORIZE	Enabling-or-disabling-the-network-browser-command-interface
   ENCRYPTION_LEVEL	Whether to enable encryption of user credentials	CREDENTIALS-IF (default) or NO	Using-encryption-for-the-UIM-server
   USS_HFS_ROOT	Root directory in USS HFS for web service configuration members	/tmp/bmcuim (default)	Setting-the-USS-HFS-root-directory
