SiteManager Platform Registry Keys

 


Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value Connection Timeout
Type  DWORD
Default 480 (8 minutes)
Affects SiteBackup Server
Description To avoid NAT routing causing TCP socket disconnection, SiteBackup server and the SiteBackup Agent will exchange keep alive messages on the interval set in this key. Lowering the number will cause more frequent network traffic, but may be necessary if a NAT router, gateway, switch or other network appliance is set to disconnect sockets more frequently than after 8 minutes idle.

Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value SSL Cipherlist
Type String (REG_SZ)
Default TLSv1+HIGH:!SSLv2:!DES:!3DES
Affects SiteManager Platform Server
Description

The SSL cipherlist controls which SSL/TLS encryption methods are allowed by the Site Manager's HTTPS management interface. If stricter limits are required for security, any OpenSSL cipherlist as documented on the OpenSSL website may be used. 

For example, to restrict the web interface to TLS 1.2 and forbid MD5, SHA1 and RC4 hashing, the following string may be used: "TLSv1.2:HIGH:kRSA:!SHA1:!RC4:!MD5:!eNULL:!aNULL:!AES128"


Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value Enable LDAPS
Type  DWORD
Default 1
Affects SiteManager Platform Server
Description

If set to 0, SiteManager Platform will only attempt unencrypted LDAP requests to Active Directory servers. 

If set to 1, SiteManager Platform will attempt LDAPS (LDAP over SSL) requests and only fall back to unencrypted requests on error. 


Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value LDAPS Port
Type  DWORD
Default 636
Affects SiteManager Platform Server
Description

The TCP port number to attempt LDAPS queries on.


Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value LDAP Port
Type  DWORD
Default 389
Affects SiteManager Platform Server
Description

The TCP port number to attempt LDAP queries on.


Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value Outgoing HTTP Disable
Type  DWORD
Default 0
Affects SiteManager Platform Server
Description

If set to a non-zero value, this will disable SiteManager Platform's outgoing checks for licenses and updates. This can be useful to set in cases where a SitePlatform cannot contact the internet and is experiencing long delays when attempting to add offline keys


Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value Outgoing HTTP Timeout
Type  DWORD
Default 5
Affects SiteManager Platform Server
Description

By default, there is a 5 second connection timeout on all outgoing HTTP/HTTPS checks from SiteManager Platform. If this is a problem due to slow networking, the timeout can be increased by modifying this registry key.


Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value Listen IP Address
Type String (REG_SZ)
Default n/a
Affects SiteManager Platform Server
Description

SiteManager Platform will listen on it's web interface on either the loopback address (127.0.0.1) in restricted mode or on all addresses otherwise. If this registry key is set, the SiteManager Platform web UI will only accept connections from the IP address in this key. This can be useful in advanced deployments where the UI should only be accessible from one network.


Key HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\SOFTWARE\Macrium\Site Manager
Value Disable Default Admin Access
Type  DWORD
Default 0
Affects SiteManager Platform Server
Description By default, Site Manager allows login from any Administrator account on the local computer or on the domain that the local computer is connected to. Setting this registry key to non-zero will disable this behavior and only allow users and groups that have been explicitly allowed access in the 'Users and Groups' settings page of SiteManager Platform. This key should only be set after initial configuration of SiteManager Platform is completed, to prevent accidental lockout.
