Sun Java System Access Manager Policy Agent 2.2 Guide for SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0 and Web Application Server 7.0

Chapter 4 Post-Installation Tasks of Policy Agent 2.2 for SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0

This chapter describes configuration and other post-installation considerations and tasks. The chapter is divided into three broad categories as follows:

After completing the applicable tasks described in this chapter, perform the tasks to configure the agent to your site's specific requirements as explained in Chapter 5, Managing Policy Agent 2.2 for SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0.

Common Post-Installation Steps for All J2EE Agents in Policy Agent 2.2

The task described in this section applies to all J2EE agent installations.

Updating the Agent Profile for J2EE Agents in Policy Agent 2.2

This procedure is not required. The agent profile is created and updated in Access Manager Console. The agent profile should originally be created prior to installing an agent. However, after you install a J2EE agent, you can update the agent profile at anytime. If you do update the agent profile in Access Manager Console, you must then configure the J2EE agent accordingly as described in this section.

ProcedureTo Update the Agent Profile for J2EE Agents in Policy Agent 2.2

Before You Begin

Change the agent profile in Access Manager using Access Manager Console. For more information about the agent profile, see Creating a J2EE Agent Profile.

  1. Change the password in the password file to match the new password you just created in Access Manager Console as a part of the agent profile.

    The password file should originally have been created as a J2EE agent pre-installation task. For more information about pre-installation, see Preparing to Install Agent for SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0.

  2. In the command line, issue the agentadmin --encrypt command to encrypt the new password.

    For more information on this command, see agentadmin --encrypt.

  3. Access the J2EE agent AMAgent.properties configuration file at the following location:

    PolicyAgent-base/AgentInstance-Dir/config
  4. In this configuration file, edit the property for the agent ID to match the new ID in the agent profile as follows:

    com.sun.identity.agents.app.username = agentID
    

    where agentID represents the new agent ID that you created for the agent profile in Access Manager Console.

  5. Edit the property for the agent password as follows:

    com.iplanet.am.service.secret = encryptedPassword
    

    where encryptedPassword represents the new encrypted password you created when you issued the agentadmin --encrypt command.

  6. Restart the J2EE agent container.

    The container needs to be restarted because neither property that you edited in this task is hot-swap enabled.

Post-Installation of Agent for SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0: SAP Web Application Server 7.0

Perform the tasks in this section if you are configuring Agent for SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0 on SAP Web Application Server 7.0. This section includes a variety of short configuration tasks that are required for the agent to work on this specific deployment container. Complete all the tasks described in this section before performing the applicable tasks described in Conditional Post-Installation Steps for J2EE Agents in Policy Agent 2.2.

ProcedureTo Install the Agent Filter for the Deployed Application on SAP Web Application Server 7.0

The agent filter can be installed by modifying the deployment descriptor of the application to be protected. The following steps explain how to install the agent filter for the application you want the agent to protect:

  1. To install the agent filter, ensure that the application is not currently deployed on SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0.

    If it is currently deployed, remove it before proceeding any further.

  2. Create the necessary backups before proceeding to modify these descriptors.

    Since you will modify the deployment descriptor in the next step, creating backup files at this point is important.

  3. Edit the application's web.xml descriptor as follows:

    1. Set the <DOCTYPE> element as shown in the following code example:


      <!DOCTYPE web-app version="2.4"
       xmlns="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee"
      xmlns:xsi="http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema-instance"
      xsi:schemaLocation="http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee 
      http://java.sun.com/xml/ns/j2ee/web-app_2_4.xsd"> 

      SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0 supports the Java Servlet Specification version 2.4.

      Note that Servlet API version 2.4 is fully backward compatible with version 2.3. Therefore, all existing servlets should work without modification or recompilation.

    2. Edit the application's web.xml descriptor.

      Add the <filter> elements in the deployment descriptor. Do this by specifying the <filter>, <filter-mapping>, and <dispatcher> elements immediately following the description element of the <web-app> element in the descriptor web.xml. The following code example displays a sample web.xml descriptor with the <filter>, <filter-mapping>, and <dispatcher> elements added.


      <web-app>
      ..
      ..	
      <filter>
              <filter-name>Agent</filter-name>
              <filter-class> com.sun.identity.agents.filter.AmAgentFilter </filter-class>
          </filter>
          <filter-mapping>
              <filter-name>Agent</filter-name>
              <url-pattern>/*</url-pattern>
              <dispatcher>REQUEST</dispatcher>
              <dispatcher>INCLUDE</dispatcher>
              <dispatcher>FORWARD</dispatcher>
              <dispatcher>ERROR</dispatcher>
          </filter-mapping>
      ..
      ..
      </web-app>

    If you want to protect your application with J2EE declarative security, refer to the PolicyAgentBase/sampleapp directory to learn how to build and deploy an application. The sampleapp directory is by no means a full fledged J2EE application. Rather it is a simple application that provides you with a quick reference to application specific deployment descriptors and various deployment modes of a J2EE agent. Once you successfully deploy sampleapp and test all of its features, you can use it as a reference to other applications that will be protected by the J2EE agent.

    Once the web.xml deployment descriptor is modified to reflect the new <DOCTYPE> and <filter> elements, the agent filter is added to the application. You can now redeploy your application on SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0.


    Note –

    Ensure that role-to-principal mappings in container specific deployment descriptors are replaced with Access Manager roles or principals. You can retrieve Access Manager roles or principals for Access Manager 7 by issuing the agentadmin --getUuid command. For more information on the agentadmin --getUuid command, see agentadmin --getUuid.

    You can also retrieve the universal ID for the user (UUID) using Access Manager 7 Console to browse the user profile.

Conditional Post-Installation Steps for J2EE Agents in Policy Agent 2.2

Steps described in this section might be required, depending on your site's specific deployment.

Enabling URL Decoding for the SSO Token

The task that follows is required when Access Manager is deployed on Sun Java System Web Server.

ProcedureTo Enable URL Decoding for the SSO Token (Conditional)

Only perform this task when Access Manageris deployed on Sun Java System Web Server. The task involves editing a property in the J2EE agent AMAgent.properties configuration file.

  1. Change to the location of the J2EE agent AMAgent.properties configuration file. For information about this file, see Location of the J2EE Agent Base Directory in Policy Agent 2.2.

  2. Open the AMAgent.properties file.

  3. Set the property com.sun.identity.agents.config.sso.decode to true.

    Therefore, the property appears as follows when properly set:

    com.sun.identity.agents.config.sso.decode = true
  4. Save and close the J2EE agent AMAgent.properties configuration file.

Creating the Necessary URL Policies

If the agent is installed and configured to operate in the URL_POLICY mode, the appropriate URL policies must be created. The following examples demonstrate conceivable locations for resources that would need to have policies created for them.


Example 4–1 Configuring the Necessary URL Policies for SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0

If the agent is protecting SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0 at the /irj context URI using port 50000 with the HTTP protocol, at least one policy must be created to allow access to the following resource:


http://myhost.mydomain.com:50000/irj


Example 4–2 Configuring the Necessary URL Policies for SAP Web Application Server 7.0

If SAP Web Application Server 7.0 is available on port 8080 using HTTP protocol, at least one policy must be created to allow access to the following resource:


http://myhost.mydomain.com:8080/sampleApp/

where sampleApp is the context URI for the sample application.


For either of the preceding deployment containers, if no policies are defined and the agent is configured to operate in the URL_POLICY mode, then no user is allowed access to SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0 resources. See Sun Java System Access Manager 7 2005Q4 Administration Guide to learn how to create these policies using the Access Manager Console or command-line utilities.

Creating the Necessary User Mappings

Regarding Agent for SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0, user mapping must be created between Access Manager and the SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0 instance. By default, the mapping is based on USER_ID. For this mapping, all users with an account in SAP Enterprise Portal 7.0/Web Application Server 7.0 must also be given an appropriate account in Access Manager.
