Configure the Key Store, Audit Logs, or Token Data to Use
the Policy Store Database
When you have configured the Policy Store, you may not have to separately
configure some of the other databases. If the Policy Store is of a compatible
storage type (that is, if the Policy Store is configured to be stored in a
database that is also a valid storage option for the other database), you can
configure Policy Server to use the Policy Store database to also hold one or
more of the following:
■
■
■
Key store
Audit logs
Token data
Important! If you are using an LDAP database as your Policy Store, do not
use the Policy Store database for audit logs or token data. Audit logs and
token data cannot be written to an LDAP database. If you are using the
SiteMinder sample data source (SmSampleUsers) as your Policy Store, do not
use the Policy Store database for audit logs or token data. Audit logs and
token data are not supported by the sample policy store.
To configure another database to be stored in the Policy Store database, set
the Use Policy Store Database option that appears between the Database
drop-down list and the Storage Options area whenever a database other than
Policy Store is chosen from the Database drop-down list.
When the Use Policy Store Database option is selected, the Storage drop-down
list and the context-sensitive Storage Options are grayed-out.
