Sun Identity Manager 8.1 Resources Reference

Identity Manager Installation Notes

The RACF resource adapter is a custom adapter. You must perform the following steps to complete the installation process:

ProcedureInstalling the RACF Resource Adapter

  1. To add the RACF resource to the Identity Manager resources list, you must add the following value in the Custom Resources section of the Configure Managed Resources page.


    com.waveset.adapter.RACFResourceAdapter
  2. Copy the appropriate JAR files to the WEB-INF/lib directory of your Identity Manager installation.

    Connection Manager  

    JAR Files  

    Host On Demand 

    The IBM Host Access Class Library (HACL) manages connections to the mainframe. The recommended JAR file containing HACL is habeans.jar. It is installed with the HOD Toolkit (or Host Access Toolkit) that comes with HOD. The supported versions of HACL are in HOD V7.0, V8.0, V9.0, and V10.

    However, if the toolkit installation is not available, the HOD installation contains the following JAR files that can be used in place of the habeans.jar:

    • habase.jar

    • hacp.jar

    • ha3270.jar

    • hassl.jar

    • hodbase.jar

      See http://www.ibm.com/software/webservers/hostondemand/ for more information.

    Attachmate WRQ 

    The Attachmate 3270 Mainframe Adapter for Sun product contains the files needed to manage connections to the mainframe. 

    • RWebSDK.jar

    • wrqtls12.jar

    • profile.jaw

      Contact Sun Professional Services about getting this product.

  3. Add the following definitions to the Waveset.properties file to define which service manages the terminal session:


    serverSettings.serverId.mainframeSessionType=
    ValueserverSettings.default.mainframeSessionType=Value
    

    Value can be set as follows:

    • 1 indicates IBM Host On-Demand (HOD)

      • 3 indicates Attachmate WRQ

        If these properties are not explicitly set, then Identity Manager attempts to use WRQ first then HOD.

  4. When the Attachmate libraries are installed into a WebSphere or WebLogic application server, add the property com.wrq.profile.dir=LibraryDirectory to the WebSphere/AppServer/configuration/config.ini or startWeblogic.sh file.

    This allows the Attachmate code to find the licensing file.

  5. Restart your application server so that the modifications to the Waveset.properties file can take effect.

  6. See Chapter 53, Mainframe Connectivity for information about configuring SSL connections to the resource.
