Eureka Server Discovery Service
Eureka is a REST-based service that is primarily used for locating services for the purpose of load balancing and failover of middle-tier servers. Eureka provides both a discovery server and also support for clients which would be the individual CAS servers themselves in the pool. The server can be configured and deployed to be highly available, with each server replicating state about the registered services to the others.
CAS provides a Eureka-enabled service discovery integration that is based on Spring Cloud Netflix and bootstrapped via Spring Cloud.
Each individual CAS server is given the ability to auto-register itself with the discovery server, provided configuration is made available to instruct the CAS server how to locate and connect to the discover server service.
Support is added by including the following dependency in the WAR overlay:

When the DNS name is updated to have additional servers, that information is used immediately after the eureka client polls for that information as specified in eurekaServiceUrlPollIntervalSeconds. Alternatively, the service urls can be returned serviceUrls, but the users should implement their own mechanism to return the updated list in case of changes. The changes are effective at runtime.
eureka.client.webclient.enabledEnables the use of WebClient for Eureka HTTP Client.
falseEnables the use of WebClient for Eureka HTTP Client.
spring.cloud.config.discovery.enabledFlag to indicate that config server discovery is enabled (config server URL will be looked up via discovery).

configserverService id to locate config server.
Required settings may be needed to activate or affect the feature; review them even when they have a default. Optional settings only need to be set to change a default or to turn on the behavior they control. Third party settings belong to libraries such as Spring Boot that CAS builds on; their own documentation may have more detail.
Notes on configuration
Configuration Metadata
The collection of configuration properties listed in this section are automatically generated from the CAS source and components that contain the actual field definitions, types, descriptions, modules, etc. This metadata may not always be 100% accurate, or could be lacking details and sufficient explanations.
Be Selective
This section is meant as a guide only. Do NOT copy/paste the entire collection of settings into your CAS configuration; rather pick only the properties that you need. Do NOT enable settings unless you are certain of their purpose and do NOT copy settings into your configuration only to keep them as reference. All these ideas lead to upgrade headaches, maintenance nightmares and premature aging.
YAGNI
Note that for nearly ALL use cases, declaring and configuring properties listed here is sufficient. You should NOT have to explicitly massage a CAS XML/Java/etc configuration file to design an authentication handler, create attribute release policies, etc. CAS at runtime will auto-configure all required changes for you. If you are unsure about the meaning of a given CAS setting, do NOT turn it on without hesitation. Review the codebase or better yet, ask questions to clarify the intended behavior.
Naming Convention
Property names can be specified in very relaxed terms. For instance cas.someProperty, cas.some-property, cas.some_property are all valid names. While all
forms are accepted by CAS, there are certain components (in CAS and other frameworks used) whose activation at runtime is conditional on a property value, where
this property is required to have been specified in CAS configuration using kebab case. This is both true for properties that are owned by CAS as well as those
that might be presented to the system via an external library or framework such as Spring Boot, etc.
Note
When possible, properties should be stored in lower-case kebab format, such as cas.property-name=value.
The only possible exception to this rule is when naming actuator endpoints; The name of the
actuator endpoints (i.e. ssoSessions) MUST remain in camelCase mode.
Settings and properties that are controlled by the CAS platform directly always begin with the prefix cas. All other settings are controlled and provided
to CAS via other underlying frameworks and may have their own schemas and syntax. BE CAREFUL with
the distinction. Unrecognized properties are rejected by CAS and/or frameworks upon which CAS depends. This means if you somehow misspell a property definition
or fail to adhere to the dot-notation syntax and such, your setting is entirely refused by CAS and likely the feature it controls will never be activated in the
way you intend.
Validation
Configuration properties are automatically validated on CAS startup to report issues with configuration binding, especially if defined CAS settings cannot be recognized or validated by the configuration schema. Additional validation processes are also handled via Configuration Metadata and property migrations applied automatically on startup by Spring Boot and family.
Indexed Settings
CAS settings able to accept multiple values are typically documented with an index, such as cas.some.setting[0]=value. The index [0] is meant to be
incremented by the adopter to allow for distinct multiple configuration blocks.
Authentication
Support for HTTP basic authentication will be automatically added if one of Eureka server URLs
in the configuration has credentials embedded in it (curl style, like http://user:password@localhost:8761/eureka).
Troubleshooting
To enable additional logging, configure the log4j configuration file to add the following levels:

Actuator Endpoints
The following endpoints are provided by CAS:
clusterTopology
Turn the endpoint on and expose it over the web.
One entry covers every operation. By default only info, health and status are exposed.

Endpoints may be mapped to other paths. For example, to serve health at healthcheck:

management.endpoints.web.path-mapping.health=healthcheck
Once exposed, every call goes through Spring Security,
and CAS decides access per endpoint. Without a rule, the special defaults endpoint applies, which denies access.

IfprincipalAttributePasswordis empty then a user simple bind is done to validate credentials. Otherwise the given attribute is compared with the givenprincipalAttributePasswordusing theSHAencrypted value of it. - DIRECT: Direct Bind - Compute user DN from format string and perform simple bind. This is relevant when no search is required to compute the DN needed for a bind operation. Use cases for this type are: 1) All users are under a single branch in the directory,
e.g. ou=Users,dc=example,dc=org.2) The username provided on the CAS login form is part of the DN, e.g.uid=%s,ou=Users,dc=example,dc=org.

cas.monitor.endpoints.ldap.pool-passivatorYou may receive unexpected LDAP failures, when CAS is configured to authenticate using DIRECT or AUTHENTICATED types and LDAP is locked down to not allow anonymous binds/searches.
BINDDIRECT or AUTHENTICATED types and LDAP is locked down to not allow anonymous binds/searches. Every second attempt with a given LDAP connection from the pool would fail if it was on the same connection as a failed login attempt, and the regular connection validator would similarly fail. When a connection is returned back to a pool, it still may contain the principal and credentials from the previous attempt. Before the next bind attempt using that connection, the validator tries to validate the connection again but fails because it’s no longer trying with the configured bind credentials but with whatever user DN was used in the previous step. Given the validation failure, the connection is closed and CAS would deny access by default. Passivators attempt to reconnect to LDAP with the configured bind credentials, effectively resetting the connection to what it should be after each bind request. Furthermore if you are seeing errors in the logs that resemble a 'Operation exception encountered, reopening connection' type of message, this usually is an indication that the connection pool’s validation timeout established and created by CAS is greater than the timeout configured in the LDAP server, or more likely, in the load balancer in front of the LDAP servers. You can adjust the LDAP server session’s timeout for connections, or you can teach CAS to use a validity period that is equal or less than the LDAP server session’s timeout. Accepted values are: -
NONE: No passivation takes place. -
BIND: The default behavior which passivates a connection by performing a bind operation on it. This option requires the availability of bind credentials when establishing connections to LDAP.

update: Update the schema. -
create: Create the schema, destroying previous data. -
create-drop: Drop the schema at the end of the session. -
none: Do nothing.
Note that during a version migration where any schema has changed create-drop will result in the loss of all data as soon as CAS is started. For transient data like tickets this is probably not an issue, but in cases like the audit table important data could be lost. Using `update`, while safe for data, is confirmed to result in invalid database state. validate or none settings are likely the only safe options for production use.

PoolInitializationExceptionwill be thrown. - A value of zero will not prevent the pool from starting in the case that a connection cannot be obtained. However, upon start the pool will attempt to obtain a connection and validate that the
connectionTestQueryandconnectionInitSqlare valid. If those validations fail, an exception will be thrown. If a connection cannot be obtained, the validation is skipped and the pool will start and continue to try to obtain connections in the background. This can mean that callers toDataSource#getConnection()may encounter exceptions. - A value less than zero will not bypass any connection attempt and validation during startup, and therefore the pool will start immediately.

cas.monitor.endpoints.json.locationThe location of the resource.
The location of the resource. Resources can be URLs, or files found either on the classpath or outside somewhere in the file system.
In the event the configured resource is a Groovy script, especially if the script is set to reload on changes, you may need to adjust the total number of inotify instances. On Linux, you may need to add the following line to /etc/sysctl.conf: fs.inotify.max_user_instances = 256.
You can check the current value via cat /proc/sys/fs/inotify/max_user_instances.
In situations and scenarios where CAS is able to automatically watch the underlying resource for changes and detect updates and modifications dynamically, you may be able to specify the following setting as either an environment variable or system property with a value of false to disable the resource watcher: org.apereo.cas.util.io.PathWatcherService.
