Updating application servers

NOTE:

  • We recommend that you perform the automatic update only in specific maintenance windows, in which the application cannot be accessed by users and the application can be manually restarted with no risk.

  • The following permissions are required for automatic updating:

    • The user account for updating requires write permissions for the application directory.

    • The user account for updating requires the local security policy Log on as a batch job.

    • The user account running the application pool requires the Replace a process level token and Adjust memory quotas for a process local security policies.

To run an update, first load the files to be updated into the One Identity Manager database. The necessary files are loaded into the One Identity Manager database and updated when a hotfix, a service pack, or a full version update is run.

The test depends on the selected mode for automatic update. New files are loaded from the database as they are identified. The files cannot be updated while the application is running. The update waits until the application is restarted.

The application is restarted automatically by the web server when it has been idle for a defined length of time. However, this may take some time or be hindered by continuous user requests.

Configure automatic updating in the application server's web.config file. In the <autoupdate> section, you can control the behavior of the update.

Table 28: Attribute for automatically updating the configuration

Attribute

Description

off

Specifies whether automatic update is disabled (True) or not (False).

mode

Mode for automatic update. Permitted values are:

  • timer: Scheduled checking (default). At application start up, a check for updated files in the database is carried out and afterward, at schedule intervals (attribute checkinterval).

  • manual: Manual checking. You start the check from the application server's status page. Regular checking if updated files in the database does not take place.

checkinterval

Time period for search for update in timer mode. Default: 5 minutes

inactivitytime

Time period without user activity so that the update can be started. Default: 10 seconds.

Example:

<autoupdate>

<!-- <add key="off" value="true" /> -->

<add key="mode" value="timer" /> <!-- Valid options: timer, manual -->

<add key="checkinterval" value="00:05:00"/>

<add key="inactivitytime" value="00:00:10"/>

</autoupdate>

To start the update manually

  1. Open the status page for the application server in the browser.

  2. In the menu for the currently logged on user, click Update immediately.

  8. Configure the following settings on the Select setup target page.

    Table 29: Settings for the installation target
    Setting Description

    Application name

    Enter the name to use in the browser as the application name.

    Target in IIS

    Select the website on the Internet Information Services where the application is installed.

    Enforce SSL

    Specifies whether secure or insecure websites are available to install.

    If the option is set, only sites secured by SSL can be used for installing. This setting is the default value.

    If this option is not set, insecure websites can be used for installing.

    URL

    Enter the application's URL.

    Install dedicated application pool

    Enable this option if you want to install a separate application pool for each application. This allows applications to be set up independently of one another. If this option is set, each application is installed in its own application pool.

    Application pool

    Select the application pool to use. This can only be entered if the Install dedicated application pool option is not set.

    If you use the DefaultAppPool default value, the application pool has the following syntax:

    <application name>_POOL

    Identity

    Specify the permissions for implementing the application pool. You can use a default identity or a custom user account.

    If you use the ApplicationPoolIdentity default value, the user account has the following syntax:

    IIS APPPOOL\<application name>_POOL

    You can authorize another user by clicking ... next to the box, enabling the option Custom account and entering the user and password.

    Assign file permissions for application pool identity

    Specify whether the identity that the application pool was running with obtains the file permissions.

    Overwrite default IIS request limits

    Specify whether the default IIS values for the URL length, query string length, and content length are overwritten. If the values are not adequate, IIS returns an HTTP 404 error. For more information, see HTTP 404 Error Substatus Codes.

    Adjust the values to suit your requests if necessary.

    • Max. URL length [B]: Maximum length if a URL in bytes. The default value is 4096 bytes.

    • Max. query string length [B]: Maximum length of a query string in bytes. The default value is 32768 bytes.

    • Max. content length [B]: Maximum length of content in bytes. The efault value is 30000000 bytes.

    NOTE: You can configure these values at a later date.

    Web authentication

    Specify which type of authentication to use against the web application. You have the following options:

    • Windows authentication (single sign-on)

      The user is authenticated against the Internet Information Services using their Windows user account and the web application logs in the identity assigned to the user account as role-based. If single sign-on is not possible, the user is diverted to a login page. You can only select this authentication method if Windows authentication is installed.

    • Anonymous

      Login is possible without Windows authentication. The user is authenticated against the Internet Information Services and the web application anonymously, and the web application is directed to a login page.

    Database authentication

    NOTE: You can only see this section if you have selected an SQL database connection on the Database connection page.

    Specify which type of authentication to use against the One Identity Manager database. You have the following options:

    • Windows authentication

      The web application is authenticated against the One Identity Manager database with the same Windows user account that your application pool uses. Login is possible with a user-defined user account or a default identity for the application pool.

    • SQL authentication

      Authentication is completed with a SQL Server login and password. The SQL Server login from the database connection is used. Use the [...] button to enter a different SQL login, for example, if the application is run with a access level for end users. This access data is saved in the web application configuration as computer specific encrypted.

  9. (Optional) On the Select application server page, perform the following actions.

    NOTE: This page only shown if you have selected a direct database connection.

    NOTE: If you would like to use the full text search, then you must specify an application server.

    1. Click Select application server.

    2. In the dialog, in the URL field, enter the web address of the application server that is running the search service for full-text search.

    3. Click OK.

  10. On the Set session token certificate page, select the certificate for creating and checking session tokens.

    NOTE: The certificate must have a key length of at least 1024 bits.

    • To use an existing certificate, set the following:

      1. Session token certificate: Select the Use existing certificate entry.

      2. Select certificate: Select the certificate.

        NOTE: It is strongly recommended to use the certificate already in use in other application servers and API Servers.

    • To create a new certificate, set the following:

      1. Session token certificate: Select the Create new certificate entry.

      2. Certificate issuer: Enter the issuer of the certificate.

      3. Key length: Specify the key length for the certificate.

      The certificate is entered in the application server's certificate management.

      NOTE: It is strongly recommended to export this newly created certificate and use it in other application servers and API Servers as well, so that all these server components have and use the identical session certificate.

    • To create a new certificate file, set the following:

      1. Session token certificate: Select the Generate new certificate file entry.

      2. Certificate issuer: Enter the issuer of the certificate.

      3. Key length: Specify the key length for the certificate.

      4. Certificate file: Enter the directory path and name of the certificate file.

      The certificate file is stored in the specified directory of the web application.

      NOTE: It is strongly recommended to use this newly created certificate in other application servers and API Servers as well, so that all these server components have and use the identical session certificate.

  11. On the Assign machine roles page, define the machine roles.

    The SCIM Provider machine role is required for the SCIM plug-in in the API Server. For more information about the SCIM plug-in, see the One Identity Manager Configuration Guide.

    NOTE: You can configure the SCIM plug-in at a later date.

  12. Specify the user account for automatic updating on the Set update credentials page by activating one of the following options:

    NOTE: The user account is used to add or replace files in the application directory.

    • Use IIS credentials for update: Set this option to use the user account used by the application pool to run updates.

    • Use other credentials for updates: To use a different user account, set this option. Specify the domain, the user name, and the user password.

  13. On the Application token page, enter the application token for the API Server into the input field. The application token is required by the Password Reset Portal.

    NOTE: Handle the application token like a password. Once the application is saved in the database, it cannot be displayed in text form again. Make a note of the application token if necessary.

    TIP: To use a new token and therefore replace the existing token in the database, activate the option Replace the application token in the database. When doing so, note that the current token will become invalid and every location that uses it must be updated with the new token.

  14. Installation progress is displayed on the Setup is running page. After installation is complete, click Next.

  15. On the Wizard complete page, click Finish.

  16. Close the autorun program.
