Starting and stopping ASE

Before you begin

For the API Security Engine (ASE) to start, the ase_master.key must be present in the /opt/pingidentity/ase/config directory.

If you have moved the master key to a secured location for security reasons, copy it to the /config directory before executing the start script.

About this task

You can also run ASE as a non-root user.

Starting ASE

Steps

  1. To check that the nofile limit in /etc/security/limits.conf is set to at least 65535 or higher on the host machine, run the following command on the ASE host machine:

    ulimit -n

  2. Change the working directory to bin and run the start.sh script.

    Example:
