To Create a New Group

If desired, perform this task in the OpenSSO Enterprise Administration Console. This task applies to J2EE agent groups.

Create a group if you want agents to inherit specific properties from the group. J2EE agents can inherit properties from a J2EE agent group.

1. Click the Access Control tab.

2. Click the name of the realm to which the group will belong.

3. Click the Agents tab.

4. If necessary, select the J2EE Agents tab.

5. In the Group section, click New.

6. In the Name field, enter the name for the new group name.

7. In the Server URL field, enter the OpenSSO Enterprise server URL.

   For example, http://OpenssoHost.example.com:58080/opensso.

8. Click Create.

   The Console creates the agent group and displays the J2EE agent page again, with a link to the group.

   To do additional configuration of the group, click this link to display the Edit agent group page.

   The properties you can set to configure a group are the same as they are for an individual agent except that the Group, Password, and Password Confirm properties are not available at the group level.

   Note –

   Also, be aware that some group properties already have variable values assigned that in most cases should not be changed. The following is one example of such a value:

   @AGENT_PROTO@://@AGENT_HOST@:@AGENT_PORT@/amagent
