SAM Service

Property Description
OTP Configurations
Defines configurations related to OTP generated by the ADSS SAM:
  • SAM_OTP_EXPIRY_TIME = 900
    Time interval in seconds to define the expiry time of OTP sent to user device for authentication. Default value: 900

  • SAM_OTP_LENGTH = 6
    Number of digits to define the total length of OTP. Possible values: 4,6 and 9. Default value: 6 

Request expiry period
Time interval in seconds to define the expiry period of authorised pending request. Default value: 100 
  • SAM_REQUEST_EXPIRY_PERIOD = 100
User authentication retries limit
This property is used to define the number of authentication attempts allowed on a user account for user password and OTPs. Default value: 5 
  • SAM_USER_AUTH_RETRIES_LIMIT = 5
User block period Time interval in seconds for which a user will be blocked by the SAM after its login retries limit or OTP retry limit reaches. Default value: 100
  • SAM_USER_BLOCK_PERIOD = 100
    Storing limited data into the database to minimize the database size If your database size grows too quickly because a lot of SAM Service transactions are being logged then the size of log information can be reduced by removing some data columns from the database logs. The following are the attributes which manages the logging of specified column:
    • TRANSACTION_LOG_COLUMNS = ResponseStatus, RequestTime, ResponseTime, Request, Response, UserId, RelyingPartyId, RelyingPartyIp, RelyingPartySslCert, ErrorCode
    Transaction logs settings
    Transactions can be stored either directly or delayed for better performance. The following properties are used for logging:
    • TRANSACTION_LOG_MODE = LAZY
      Used to decide whether the transactions are kept in memory before these are stored in the database (LAZY logging) or directly stored in the database (EAGER logging). Possible values: LAZY, EAGER
      In case of LAZY logging the transaction logs are kept in memory upto the number of seconds configured in TRANSACTION_LOG_LAZY_INTERVAL or number of transactions configured in TRANSACTION_LOG_LAZY_RECORD_COUNT whichever is reached first

    • TRANSACTION_LOG_LAZY_INTERVAL = 2
      When LAZY logging is configured, transactions are kept in memory upto the configured time or if the configured TRANSACTION_LOG_LAZY_RECORD_COUNT is reached before it

    • TRANSACTION_LOG_LAZY_RECORD_COUNT = 50
      When LAZY logging is configured, transactions are kept in memory until the configured number of transactions is reached or if the configured TRANSACTION_LOG_LAZY_INTERVAL is met before it.
