Environment

NetIQ Access Governance Suite

Situation

How to restrict specific Access Governance Suite servers to task and request management.

Resolution

  1. Edit the identityiq/config/iiq.properties file
  2. Add the following lines (as needed):
    environment.taskSchedulerHosts=host1,host2,host3
    environment.requestSchedulerHosts=host1,host2,host3
    *host1, host2, host3 equal the names of the actual Access Governance Suite server hosts
  3. If host1 and host2 are on the same machine you will need to specify a hostname for each by passing a JVM option for each:
    Example:
    -Diiq.hostname=host1
    -Diiq.hostname=host2
    Consult your local system administrator for more information.

This will instruct the server to start the task scheduler/request scheduler on startup if its hostname is in the list.

This will need to be done on every Access Governance Suite server that is in the environment.

You can see the settings when the system starts up by logging into Access Governance Suite and going to the /identityiq/debug/about.jsf page (under the Server Information section).
