Creating the WebSphere Administrative Group in OpenSSO Enterprise

Any user in this group, in addition to the primary administrative user, can log in to the WebSphere Administration Console.

In the Access Manager 7.1 and Access Manager 7 2005Q4 releases, the user was assigned a specific role. OpenSSO Enterprise uses groups rather than roles for the same functionality.

To Create the WebSphere Administrative Group in OpenSSO Enterprise

1. Login to the OpenSSO Enterprise Administration Console.

2. Click Access Control and then the name of the realm for which you would like to create the WebSphere administrative group.

3. Click Subjects and then Group.

4. Click New and enter the name for the WebSphere administrative group. For example: wasadmingroup

   Important: Use all lowercase characters for the group name; otherwise, WebSphere might not recognize the name.

5. Click OK.

6. On the returned page, click the WebSphere administrative group (wasadmingroup).

7. Click User.

8. Select the primary administrative user (wasadmin) and any other users you want to be able to log in to the WebSphere Administration Console and click Add.
