{{[Section] parameter}}
csf_resolv.conf
stores host and security information used by Veritas Storage Foundation Manager commands and scripts.
-
PROTOCOL_TYPE = protocol_level;
-
protocol_level
can be one of the following values:
high,
medium, and
low.
-
USER = user-id;
-
user-id
is a valid account for the broker host.
The typical
user-id
is
vea_guest. It is important that a valid credential certificate issued by
BROKER_HOST
exist on the system for
USER. It is recommended that
user-id
not be an account with administrative privileges on non-trusted hosts in the domain. Command-line interfaces will accept the
user-id
declared in
csf_resolv.conf
and not prompt users for credentials.
-
DOMAIN_NAME = domain_name;
-
domain_name
is a valid authentication domain for the broker host and the name of the domain to which the user (if specified) belongs.
domain_name
can be either localhost (in case of a standalone install), NT, or the name of the Authentication Broker host (for unixpwd domains).
-
DOMAIN_TYPE = domain_type;
-
domain_type
is the type of authentication domain for the broker host, and can be the following:
vx,
nisplus,
nis,
nt, and
unixpwd.
-
BROKER_HOST = ABhost_name;
-
Defines the Symantec Product Authentication Service Authentication Broker being used by SF Manager.
ABhost_name
must be the fully-qualified host name for the Authentication Service broker host.
-
BROKER_PORT = port_number;
-
The port through which applications communicate with the Authentication Broker. The default is 1556.
-
domain = SFMShost_name;
-
Defines the SF Manager host.
SFMShost_name
must be the fully-qualified host name for the Management Server.
csf_resolv.conf
resides on the Veritas Storage Foundation Manager host in:
/etc/default
It is possible to override the default
csf_resolv.conf
by specifying the environment variable:
CSF_RESOLV_CONF. In this manner you can manage domain settings for multiple users.
CSF_RESOLV_CONF
should point to a file that uses the conventions defined in this topic.
A semi-colon (;) must follow each line added to
csf_resolv.conf. No comments are allowed in
csf_resolv.conf.
csf_resolv.conf
assumes that the certificate used to authenticate the user resides on the local host. If this is not the case, you must use the Authentication Service command-line interface,
vssat, to authenticate the user. For example:
vssat authenticate --domain nis:my_broker@example.com
--prplname TomSawyer --password LetTomIn --broker MyHost:2821
See vssat (1M).
