Administering the Package Manager

You can define the location of the folder for trusted certificates to be used by the Package Manager for TLS connections in the uc4config.xml file.

As of this version, the Automation Engine and the Java components communicate using TLS. These components establish a connection with the Java communication process (JCP), which uses trusted certificates to prove its identity to other communication partners.

You can use the trustedCertFolder= parameter in the respective configuration file to define the path to the folder where the trusted certificates are stored. Otherwise, the certificates should be installed in the Java trust store. For more information, see TLS Configuration.

File Location

The uc4config.xml file is located in the conf folder of the Package Manager.

Structure

• <Timeout>

  Connection timeout.

  Default: 1800 (in seconds)

• <connections trustedCertFolder>

  Here you define the location of the folder for trusted certificates used for TLS connections. For more information, see Security and System Hardening.

  Example: "C:\CD\..\Automation.Platform\Agents\certificates"
