Red Hat CERTIFICATE SYSTEM 8.0 - ADMINISTRATION Admin Manual page 303

NOTE
The values for configuration parameters must be properly formatted, so they must obey
two rules:
• The values that need to be localized must be in UTF8 characters.
• The CS.cfg file supports forward slashes (/) in parameter values. If a back slash (\)
is required in a value, it must be escaped with a back slash, meaning that two back
slashes in a row must be used.
The following sections are snapshots of CS.cfg file settings and parameters. These are not
exhaustive references or examples of CS.cfg file parameters. Also, the parameters available and
used in each subsystem configuration file is very different, although there are similarities.
12.2.2.1. Basic Subsystem Settings
Basic settings are specific to the instance itself, without directly relating to the functionality or behavior
of the subsystem. This includes settings for the instance name, root directory, the user ID for the
process, and port numbers. Many of the settings assigned when the instance is first installed or
configured are prefaced with pkicreate.

12.2.2.2. Logging Settings
There are several different types of logs that can be configured, depending on the type of subsystem.
Each type of log has its own configuration entry in the CS.cfg file.
