Matching non-default Active Directory server settings

If you are using a non-default setting to connect to the Active Directory server, you must follow this procedure to change the settings on the Analyzer detail view server and Analyzer probe server

1. Log on to the Analyzer detail view server or Analyzer probe server through an SSH client (like putty) as a root user.
2. List the details of the properties using the command:

   cat /usr/local/megha/conf/sys/ad.properties

   The default values are:

   • ad.ssl.port=636
   • ad.non.ssl.port=389
   • ad.auth.type=simple
   • ad.connect.timeout=5000
   • ad.connect.retry.interval=1000
   • ad.connect.retry.times=2

   Note: The simple authentication type is supported for ad.auth.type property.
3. Note any property value that needs to be changed. For example, ad.ssl.port=123.
4. Enter the command:

   cd /usr/local/megha/conf

5. Create a new custom directory as follows:

   mkdir custom

6. Create a file custom.properties in the new folder you just created (/usr/local/megha/conf/custom).
7. In the custom.properties file, add the property you noted earlier. For example: ad.ssl.port=123.
8. Change the owner of the new files and folders:

   chown -R megha:megha /usr/local/megha/conf/custom

9. Stop the megha service and verify the status with these commands:

   /usr/local/megha/bin/megha-jetty.sh stop
   /usr/local/megha/bin/megha-jetty.sh status

10. Start the megha service and verify the status with these commands:

    /usr/local/megha/bin/megha-jetty.sh start
    /usr/local/megha/bin/megha-jetty.sh status
