Server Settings

A Directory Manager portal is deployed as a web application on a web server (native IIS, remote IIS, or Docker). You can manage the following server-related settings for a portal:

• Change a portal’s name (i.e., the application name given to the portal).

• Associate identity stores with a portal.

• Update support information for the portal, i.e., the contact email address and the portal’s help URL.

• Specify search-related, group-related, and other advanced settings for a portal.

  NOTE: Advanced settings are available for a standard Directory Manager portal, but not for a Self-Service Password Reset portal.

You can also view the deployment details for all instances of a portal and do the following:

• Start or stop an instance.
• Configure Windows logging and file logging for an instance.
• Delete an instance.
• Move a portal instance under a different site in IIS.

NOTE: On changing some of these settings, the portal’s session ends and all connected users are logged out. When accessed again, the portal runs under the new configurations.
