UVMS - Advanced Settings

Consult the Univiewer Administration Guide for details of the advanced settings.

Variable / Label

I/S/D

Description

Session Expiration Delay

AUT_SESSIONID_TIMEOUT_MIN

D

Univiewer session validity (in minutes). 1440 by default

UVMS Reconnection Delay (seconds) (requires UVC restart)

UVMS_UVC_RECONNECTION_TIMER

S

This setting is used by UVC and is the delay in which the console will try to reconnect to every known host for the targeted UVMS.

By default the console will try to reconnect every 30s to each hosts

User Authentication Type

AUTHENTICATION_MODE

I

Internal by default (authentication managed by UVMS), LDAP authentication or synchronization.

Automatic Registration for New Users

AUTO_REGISTRATION

I

(LDAP only). Yes

Update group membership at login (LDAP Synchronization mode only)

LDAP_MEMBERSHIP_AT_LOGIN

I

Yes by default. Updates group membership during the login process including any changes that took place after the last synchronization.

LDAP Synchronization strategy

LDAP_SYNCHRONIZATION_MODE

I

Choose groups manually by default. Strategy to retrieve the first levels LDAP groups.

Retrieve only groups at synchronization (mode Synchronization using a filter)

LDAP_RETRIEVE_GROUPS_ONLY

I

No by default. If Yes is set, allows to not automatically create users during the LDAP synchronization. The users will be created when they first authenticate on UVMS.

LDAP Synchronization cycle (hours)

LDAP_SYNCHRONIZATION_CYCLE

S

12 hours by default

Duration of the synchronization cycle between UVMS and LDAP. The cycle beginning is the UVMS starting time.

The value is set in hours. A null value shows that no synchronization is planned: it will only be triggered manually from the Univiewer Console.

LDAP Max links

LDAP_MAX_LINKS

S

Maximum number of links importable by the LDAP synchronization. 10 000 by default. A link is set by a pair user/group.

Please refer to the Univiewer Administration Guide for more details about the LDAP integration.

The users created in UVMS should only contain the following characters: ABCDEFGHIJKLMNOPQRSTUVWXYZabcdefghijklmnopqrstuvwxyz0123456789!#&'()+,-.:;>=<?@[]_{|}~

The groups created in UVMS should only contain the following characters: http://www.asciitable.com/index/asciifull.gif . Groups imported from LDAP are not checked.

Variable / Label

I/S/D

Description

Maximum Number of File Descriptors

UXMAXFD

S

Maximum number of file descriptors (files + sockets) that a process can open simultaneously, 8000 by default.

UNIX ps command – Short or Long Path Display

U_FULL_PATH

S

Select "short path" to display only the binary names (on AIX the length is limited) or "full path" to display the full path of the binary name in a "ps" command.

Inventory – Maximum Parallel Executions

MAX_PARALLEL_INVENTORIES

S

Maximum 5 (by default) inventories can run in parallel. If a new request to start inventories is received from the internal scheduler then it is put in "pending".

Inventory – Maximum Parallel Pending

MAX_PENDING_INVENTORIES

S

If a request is received from the internal scheduler while 5 (by default) inventories are running and 5 (by default) inventories are pending, then this request is immediately aborted.

Maximum Number of Parallel UVC Requests in Direct Mode (requires UVC restart)

UNI_VIEWER_MAX_PARALLEL
_REQUESTS_DIRECT_MODE

D

Default value: 15.
Increasing the value to a very large value (more than 30) is not recommended as it could cause TCP connection problems if UVC or DUAS have way too many connections.

Dollar Universe V6 can handle more requests than Dollar Universe v5. To avoid possible connection issues, lower this value before package creation in Dollar Universe v5.

Maximum Number of Parallel UVC Requests in Web Mode (requires UVC restart)

UNI_VIEWER_MAX_PARALLEL
_REQUESTS_WEB_MODE

D

Default value: 10
It is lower compared to direct mode since the gateway is shared by all UVC clients.
Increasing it to a larger value (> 10) is not recommended unless upsizing the Web server capacity (threads capacity and/or load balancing activation).

Dollar Universe V6 can handle more requests than Dollar Universe v5. To avoid possible connection issues, lower this value before package creation in Dollar Universe v5.

Maximum number of cells saved in the clipboard (affects UVC memory consumption, requires UVC restart)

UNI_VIEWER_MAX_CELL_IN_CLIPBOARD

D

Depending on this value you can store more rows in the clipboard when doing a CTRL+C on any table of UVC.

Warning: If you increase this variable you should increase the max heap memory of UVC too as more memory will be required for copying the rows

Initial Allocated Heap Memory

UXMINJVMMEM

S

In Megabytes. This value will be used in the Management Server java launch command for the ––Xms parameter.

Maximum Allocated Heap Memory

UXMAXJVMMEM

S

In Megabytes. This value will be used in the Management Server java launch command for the ––Xmx parameter.

Maximum number of UVMS threads allocated for autopatch deployment

UNI_VIEWER_PACKAGES
_MAX_THREADS

S

Number of threads dedicated to deploying autopatches (default: 10). Each dedicated thread manages the deployment of an autopatch on a node until the end of the operation before proceeding to the next node.

Default time-out for connections from UVC to Oracle DB

UNI_VIEWER_TIMEOUT_ORADB_CNX

D

300 seconds by default (5 minutes)

Maximum waiting delay (in seconds) of the Oracle DB response when the user clicks on the value help button to display a list of data from the Oracle DB.

Enable retrieve of the last operation in the audit trail

ENABLE_LAST_AUDIT_TRAIL_ACTION

I

Yes or No (by default)

Threads number to compute deployment dependency

UVMS_PACKAGE_DEPLOYMENT_POOL

D

100 by default

When using the unidpl UVMS deployment command, if such an error message appears as the return of the command, the value should be increased:

Command in error: Problem occurred during package Deploy: Task java.util.concurrent.FutureTask@ebd6ae rejected from com.orsyp.util.executors.FixedThreadPoolExecutor@1e9c97d[Running, pool size = 100, active threads = 100, queued tasks = 100, completed tasks = 0] (see log for more details)

The LDAP mode node settings are described thoroughly in the Univiewer Administration Guide.
