Yes, the file /etc/systemd/network/static.network (or a similarly named file depending on the Linux distribution used by the Virtual Appliance) is typically used to configure a static IP address for the VA. This file is part of the systemd network configuration, and modifying it allows you to specify static IP settings, such as the IP address, netmask, gateway, and DNS servers, for the Virtual Appliance's network interface.
To set a static IP address, you would need to modify this file and restart the network service for the changes to take effect.

Yes, the Web Services connector in SailPoint IdentityNow supports Basic Authentication. Basic Authentication is a standard method for securing API requests by sending credentials (username and password) encoded in the HTTP headers. This is a common practice for authenticating web service requests, and the Web Services connector in IdentityNow supports it along with other authentication methods like OAuth.

No, verifying that the VA is configured for automatic updates by setting autoupdate=true in the config.yaml file is not directly related to troubleshooting a failed status on the VA. While keeping the VA updated is important for long-term stability and functionality, the configuration for automatic updates does not resolve immediate connection or service failure issues. The troubleshooting focus should be on network connectivity, service status, and log reviews.
Key Reference from SailPoint Documentation:
* VA Autoupdate Configuration: Configuring the VA for automatic updates is a best practice for maintaining up-to-date software but is not a direct troubleshooting step for addressing an immediate VA failure.

Yes, search-based certification campaigns can be leveraged to target specific access held by users. This allows administrators to create highly focused certification campaigns by searching for specific attributes, entitlements, or roles within the system. These campaigns enable targeted access reviews, ensuring that particular access rights, such as high-risk entitlements, are regularly reviewed and certified by the appropriate stakeholders.
