To Set Up an Administrator Console on a Remote Host on Application Server 8.2

1. Install Portal Server 7.1 on Node 1 in the Configure Now mode.

2. Install Application Server 8.2 on Node 2 in the Configure Now mode.

3. Install Portal Server in the Configure Later mode on Node 2.

4. Stop the common agent container on node 2.

   /usr/lib/cacao/bin/cacaoadm stop

5. Run the following command on Node 2:

   /usr/lib/cacao/bin/cacaoadm create-keys -f

6. Start the common agent container on Node 2 .

   /usr/lib/cacao/bin/cacaoadm start

7. Create the following directory structure in your current directory.

   mkdir -p WEB-INF/classes/

   mkdir -p WEB-INF/lib/

8. Create a property file, WEB-INF/classes/pasconnect.properties, with the property value pair pas.host=node1.domain.com.

9. Copy the cacao_cacao.jar file into the WEB-INF/lib directory.

   The cacao_cacao.jar file is located in the following directories:

   • For Solaris platform: /usr/lib/cacao/lib

   • For Linux platform: /cacao_base/sun/cacao/share/lib

10. In the psconsole.war file, add the following content.

    jar -uvf /PortalServer_base/SUNWportal/admin/psconsole.war WEB-INF

11. Deploy the updated psconsole.war file to the Application Server instance.

12. Add the following in the /domains/domain1/server.policy file.

    grant { permission java.util.PropertyPermission "*","read,write"; permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "writeFileDescriptor"; permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "createClassLoader"; permission java.io.FilePermission "\${/}-", "read,write,execute,delete"; // Used by psconsole app permission java.security.SecurityPermission "insertProvider.SunSASL"; permission java.security.SecurityPermission "insertProvider.SunJSSE"; permission java.lang.RuntimePermission "getProtectionDomain"; };

13. Restart the Application Server instance.

    Note –

    Step 12 is not required if the security manager is disabled for the Application Server domain where psconsole is deployed. This is achieved by commenting out the following JVM option for security policy in the domain.xml file.

    <jvm-options>-Djava.security.policy=${com.sun.aas.instanceRoot} /config/server.policy</jvm-options>
