10 WebCenter Portal Custom WLST Commands

This chapter describes WebLogic Scripting Tool (WLST) commands for Oracle WebCenter Portal. These commands enable you to configure WebCenter Portal applications and components from the command-line. For additional details about WebCenter Portal configuration, see Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

Notes:

To use these commands, you must invoke WLST from the Oracle home in which the component has been installed. See "Using Custom WLST Commands" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide.

Most configuration changes made using WebCenter Portal WLST commands are only effective after you restart the Managed Server on which the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. The only exceptions are WLST commands for External Applications, Portlet Producers, and WebCenter Portal Import and Export.

WebCenter Portal WLST commands are described in the following sections:

WebCenter Portal WLST Command Categories

Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application in which to perform this operation.
name
Connection name. The name must be unique (across all connection types) within the WebCenter Portal application.
socketType
Specifies whether Oracle WebCenter Content's Content Server connects on the content server listener port or the Web server filter, and whether the listener port is SSL enabled. Valid values are socket, web, and socketssl. This option has no default.

Choose from:

  • socket—Use an intradoc socket connection to connect to the Content Server. The client IP address must be added to the list of authorized addresses in the Content Server. In this case, the client is the machine on which Oracle WebCenter Portal is running.

  • socketssl—Use an intradoc socket connection to connect to the Content Server. that is secured using the SSL protocol. The client's certificates must be imported in the server's trust store for the connection to be allowed. Because this is the most secure option, this is the recommended option whenever identity propagation is required (for example, in the Spaces application).

  • web—Use an HTTP(S) connection to connect to the Content Server. Note that for the Spaces application, this option is not suitable for the active connection, that is, the back-end Content Server. repository that is being used to store space-specific documents and Home space documents, because it does not allow identity propagation.

  • jaxws—Use a Java API for XML Web Services connection to connect to the Content Server.

url
Optional. Content Server URL. Required only if socketType is set to web or jaxws. URL should be in the format: http://<hostname>:<port>/<web root>/<plugin root>

For example, http://mycontentserver/cms/idcplg.

serverHost
Optional. Host name of the machine where the Content Server is running. Required if socketType is set to socket or socketssl.
serverPort
Optional. Port on which the Content Server listens. Required if socketType is set to socket or socketssl:
  • Socket—Port specified for the incoming provider in the server.

  • Socket SSL—Port specified for the sslincoming provider in the server.

This property corresponds to the IntradocServerPort setting in the Content Server configuration file, which defaults to port 4444.

keystoreLocation
Optional. Location of key store that contains the private key used to sign the security assertions. Required only if socketType is set to socketssl.

The key store location must be an absolute path.

keystorePassword
Optional. Password required to access the key store. Required only if socketType is set to socketssl.
privateKeyAlias
Optional. Client private key alias in the key store. The key is used to sign messages to the server. The public key corresponding to this private key must be imported in the server keystore.

Required only if socketType is set to socketssl. The value for this argument must be a string that contains neither special characters nor white space.

privateKeyPassword
Optional. Password to be used with the private key alias in the key store. Required only if socketType is set to socketssl.
webContextRoot
Optional. Web server context root for the Content Server. Use the format /<context_root>. For example, /cs.

When specified, several Oracle WebCenter Content features based on iFrame are available in the WebCenter Portal application. This includes:

  • Associating a content profile with files when uploading new or updated files to Content Server.

    For more information, see "Uploading New Files" and "Uploading a New Version of an Existing File" in Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

  • Using the document review functionality available in Oracle AutoVue.

    For more information, see "Reviewing and Collaborating on Documents Using AutoVue" in Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

  • Editing advanced document properties.

    For more information, see "Working with File Properties" in Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

  • Viewing folder and file workflow details.

    For more information, see "Viewing Workflow Information" in Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

  • Previewing files in a slide viewer.

    For more information, see "Opening a File" in Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

  • Site Studio integration

    For more information, see Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

webContextRoot is only applicable when IDENTITY_PROPAGATION is used for authentication, that is, when extAppId is set to an empty string.

Note: To fully enable these Oracle WebCenter Content features you must access the WebCenter Portal application through Oracle HTTPS Server (OHS) to expose Content Server and the WebCenter Portal application under the same host and port. Both the WebCenter Portal application and Content Server must also use single sign on. For information about setting up OHS to front-end WebCenter Portal applications, see "Content Server - Configuration" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

If your WebCenter Portal application is connected to multiple Content Servers, Oracle recommends that each Content Server has a unique Web Server Context Root so that OHS re-direction works correctly.

clientSecurityPolicy
Optional. Client security policy to be used when the socketType is jaxws. For example: oracle/wss11_saml_token_with_message_protection_service_policy
cacheInvalidationInterval
Optional. Frequency between checks for external Content Server content changes (in minutes). WebCenter Portal automatically clears items that have changed from the cache. Defaults to 0 which means that cache invalidation is disabled. The minimum interval is 2 minutes.
binaryCacheMaxEntrySize
Optional. Maximum cacheable size (in bytes) for Content Server binary documents. Documents larger than this size are not cached by WebCenter Portal. Defaults is 102400 bytes (100K).

Tune this value based on your machine's memory configuration and the types of binary documents that you expect to cache.

adminUsername

setJCRContentServerConnection

Module: Oracle WebCenter Portal

Use with WLST: Online

Description

Edits an existing Oracle WebCenter Content repository connection. This command requires that you specify values for appName and name, plus one additional argument.

Syntax

setJCRContentServerConnection(appName, name, [socketType, url, serverHost, 
serverPort, keystoreLocation, keystorePassword, privateKeyAlias, 
privateKeyPassword, webContextRoot, clientSecurityPolicy, 
cacheInvalidationInterval, binaryCacheMaxEntrySize, adminUsername, adminPassword, 
extAppId, timeout, isPrimary, server, applicationVersion])
Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application in which to perform this operation.
name
Name of an existing Oracle WebCenter Content repository connection.
socketType
Optional. Specifies whether the Oracle WebCenter Content's Content Server connects on the content server listener port or the Web server filter, and whether the listener port is SSL enabled. Valid values are socket, web, and socketssl. This option has no default.

Choose from:

  • socket—Use an intradoc socket connection to connect to the Content Server. The client IP address must be added to the list of authorized addresses in the Content Server. In this case, the client is the machine on which Oracle WebCenter Portal is running.

  • socketssl—Use an intradoc socket connection to connect to the Content Server that is secured using the SSL protocol. The client's certificates must be imported in the server's trust store for the connection to be allowed. Because this is the most secure option, this is the recommended option whenever identity propagation is required (for example, in the Spaces application).

  • web—Use an HTTP(S) connection to connect to the Content Server. Note that for the Spaces application, this option is not suitable for the back-end Content Server repository that is being used to store space-specific documents and Home space documents, because it does not allow identity propagation.

  • jaxws—Use a Java API for XML Web Services connection to connect to the Content Server.

url
Optional. Content Server URL. Required only if socketType is set to web or jaxws. URL should be in the format: http://<hostname>:<port>/<web root>/<plugin root>

For example, http://mycontentserver/cms/idcplg.

serverHost
Optional. Host name of the machine where the Content Server is running. Required if socketType is set to socket or socketssl.
serverPort
Optional. Port on which the Content Server listens. Required if socketType is set to socket or socketssl:
  • Socket—Port specified for the incoming provider in the server.

  • Socket SSL—Port specified for the sslincoming provider in the server.

For example, 4444

keystoreLocation
Optional. Location of key store that contains the private key used to sign the security assertions. Required only if socketType is set to socketssl.

The key store location must be an absolute path.

keystorePassword
Optional. Password required to access the key store. Required only if socketType is set to socketssl.
privateKeyAlias
Optional. Client private key alias in the key store. Required only if socketType is set to socketssl. The value for this argument must be a string that contains neither special characters nor white space.
privateKeyPassword
Optional. Password to be used with the private key alias in the key store. Required only if socketType is set to socketssl.
webContextRoot
Optional. Web server context root for the Content Server. Use the format /<context_root>. For example, /cs.

When specified, several Oracle WebCenter Content features based on iFrame, such as previewing files in a slide viewer, are available in the WebCenter Portal application.

Note: To fully enable these features you must access the WebCenter Portal application through Oracle HTTPS Server (OHS) to expose Content Server and the WebCenter Portal application under the same host and port. In addition, both the WebCenter Portal application and the Content Server must use single sign on. For information about setting up OHS to front-end WebCenter Portal applications, see "Content Server - Configuration" in Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

webContextRoot is only applicable when IDENTITY_PROPAGATION is used for authentication, that is, when extAppId is set to an empty string.

clientSecurityPolicy
Optional. Client security policy to be used when the socketType is jaxws. For example: oracle/wss11_saml_token_with_message_protection_service_policy
cacheInvalidationInterval
Optional. Frequency between checks for external Content Server content changes (in minutes). WebCenter Portal automatically clears items that have changed from the cache. Defaults to 0 which means that cache invalidation is disabled. The minimum interval is 2 minutes.
binaryCacheMaxEntrySize
Optional. Maximum cacheable size (in bytes) for Content Server binary documents. Documents larger than this size are not cached by WebCenter Portal. Defaults is 102400 bytes (100K).

Tune this value based on your machine's memory configuration and the types of binary documents that you expect to cache.

adminUsername
Optional. User name with administrative rights for this Content Server instance. This user will be used to fetch content type information based on profiles and track document changes for cache invalidation purpose. Defaults to sysadmin.
adminPassword
Optional. Password for the Content Server administrator specified in adminUsername. Required when socketType is set to web.
extAppId
Optional. External application used to authenticate users against the Content Server. This value should match the name of an existing external application connection. See also listExtAppConnections. If extAppId is not set, no change is made to the authentication method or external application ID.

If extAppId is set to an empty string, the authentication method used is IDENTITY_PROPAGATION. With this method, the WebCenter Portal application and Content Server use the same identity store to authenticate users.

timeout
Optional. Length of time allowed to log in to Content Server (in ms) before issuing a connection timeout message. If no timeout is set, there is no time limit for the login operation.
isPrimary
Optional. Valid string values are 1 (true) and 0 (false). 1 specifies that this connection is the primary connection used by the Documents service. This argument defaults to 0.

In the Spaces application, the primary connection is used to store space-specific content and Home space content.

server
Optional. Name of the managed server where the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. For example, WC_Spaces.

Required when applications with the same name are deployed to different servers and also when you have a cluster.

For example, if the SharePoint site address is http://mysharepoint.mycompany.com, enter this value for the url argument.

likeLimit
Optional. Number of characters the LIKE operator matches. The default is 64.

The SharePoint query language can use a LIKE keyword to constrain URL queries (document paths) that match a search pattern. By default, the LIKE operator supports a pattern match on strings up to 64 characters. Use this argument to specify a different character limit (any positive integer between 1 and 64) or enter likeLimit=0 to disable the LIKE limit, that is, always send the full query string to the Microsoft SharePoint server.

As Oracle recommends the default value (64), there is no need to specify this argument when you create a connection using the WLST command createJCRSharePointConnection.

Note: Only specify a value above 64 if your SharePoint instance supports LIKE queries on URLs greater than 64 characters.

extAppId
Optional. External application used to authenticate users against the SharePoint repository. This value should match the name of an existing external application connection. See also listExtAppConnections.

If extAppId is not set, the SharePoint repository connection will not work.

extAppId can be set or changed at any time using the setJCRSharePointConnection command.

syncDiscussionServerPermissions

Module: Oracle WebCenter Portal

Use with WLST: Online

Description

(Spaces application only) Synchronizes discussion server permissions for subspaces that inherit security from their parent.

When you update Discussions or Announcement permissions for space hierarchies in the Spaces application, the subspaces do not automatically inherit the corresponding permission change on WebCenter Portal's discussions server. Therefore, whenever changes are made, you must run this command to synchronize Discussions and Announcement permissions within a space hierarchy, such that subspaces inherit the same discussions server permissions as their parent.

Note:

To execute discussion server WLST commands, such as syncDiscussionServerPermissions, the user used to connect to the Admin Server must also have administrative privileges on the discussion server.

Description

Specifies default values for the Mail service.

Configurable properties for the Mail service are listed in Table 10-17, "Mail Service Configuration Properties".

Table 10-17 Mail Service Configuration Properties

Configuration Property Description

address.delimiter

Defines the delimiter that is used to separate multiple mail addresses. A comma is used by default.

Some mail servers require mail addresses in the form lastname, firstname and, in such cases, a semi-colon is required.

mail.emailgateway.polling.frequency

The frequency, in seconds, that spacedistribution lists are checked for new incoming emails. The default is 1800 seconds (30 minutes).

Email communication through spacedistribution lists can be published as discussion forum posts on a discussions server. For details, see "Publishing Space Mail in a Discussion Forum" in Oracle Fusion Middleware User's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

mail.messages.fetch.size

Maximum number of messages displayed in mail inboxes.

resolve.email.address.to.name

Determines whether user email addresses are resolved to WebCenter Portal user names when LDAP is configured. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false). The default value is 0.

When set to 1, WebCenter Portal user names display instead of email addresses in Mail task flows.

Set this property to 1 if the Instant Messaging and Presence service requires user names to obtain presence status because presence information cannot be obtained when the Mail service provides email addresses. Setting this value to 1 does impact application performance so you must take this into consideration when setting this property.

setNotificationsConfig

Module: Oracle WebCenter Portal

Use with WLST: Online

Description

Specifies the connection used for routing notifications raised in a WebCenter Portal application.

Use an existing mail server or BPEL server connection. If the WebCenter Portal application is connected to a BPEL server, the Oracle User Messaging Service (UMS) is available for routing notifications through multiple messaging channels, including mail, worklists, and SMS. If you configure the Notifications service to use a BPEL server connection, you may specify a sender 'From' address for each available messaging channel. That is, you can specify a sender mail address and an SMS address.

Alternatively, you can route notification messages through a mail server. If you configure the Notifications service to use a mail server connection, the external application associated with the mail server connection must contain shared credentials. Shared credentials are required for routing application-wide notifications.

Syntax

setNotificationsConfig(appName, type, name, [senderMailAddress, senderSMSAddress, server, applicationVersion])
Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application in which to perform this operation. For the Spaces application, the name is always webcenter.

Optional. Mail address from which all mail notifications are sent.

Use the format:

<email_alias><<email_address>> or <email address>.

For example, WebCenter Notification<notifications@webcenter.com> or notifications@webcenter.com.

This argument applies to notifications routed through BPEL servers. When a BPEL server is used and UMS is configured with multiple email drivers, this address is also used to identify the appropriate email driver.

When a mail server is used, the "From Address" is the same user that is specified for the associated external application's shared credentials.

senderSMSAddress
Optional. SMS number from which all SMS notifications are sent.

Typically, the SMS address format is a 4-6 digit number (without -, spaces, or any other characters). For example, 28734.

This argument applies to notifications routed through BPEL servers. When a BPEL server is used and UMS is configured with multiple SMS drivers, this address is also used to identify the appropriate SMS driver.

registerWSRPProducer

Module: Oracle WebCenter Portal

Use with WLST: Online

Description

Creates a connection to a WSRP portlet producer and registers the WRSP producer with a named WebCenter Portal application. When you create a WSRP producer connection, a Web Service connection is also created named <name>-wsconn where <name> is the value specified for the name argument.

Syntax

registerWSRPProducer(appName, name, url, [proxyHost], [proxyPort], 
[timeout],[externalApp],[registrationProperties],[tokenType],[issuer],[defUser], 
[keyStorePath],[keyStorePswd],[sigKeyAlias],[sigKeyPswd],[encKeyAlias], 
[encKeyPswd],[recptAlias], [enforcePolicyURI], [server],[applicationVersion])
Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application in which to perform this operation.
name
Connection name. The name must be unique (across all connection types) within the WebCenter Portal application.

The name you specify here will appear in the Oracle Composer (under the Portlets folder).

url
Producer WSDL URL. The syntax will vary according to your WSRP implementation, for example:

http://host_name:port_number/context_root/portlets/wsrp2?WSDL

http://host_name:port_number/context_root/portlets/wsrp1?WSDL

http://host_name:port_number/context_root/portlets/?WSDL (WSRP 1.0 for backward compatibility)

Where:

  • host_name is the server where your producer is deployed

  • port_number is the HTTP listener port number

  • context_root is the Web application's context root

  • portlets[/wsrp(1|2)]?WSDL is static text. The text entered here depends on how the producer is deployed.

For example:

http://myhost.com:7778/MyPortletApp/portlets/wsrp2?WSDL

proxyHost
Optional. Host name or IP address of the proxy server.

A proxy is required when the WebCenter Portal application and the remote portlet producer are separated by a firewall and an HTTP proxy is needed to communicate with the producer.

proxyPort
Optional. Port number on which the proxy server listens.
timeout
Optional. Timeout setting for communications with the producer, in seconds. For example, the maximum time the producer may take to register, deregister, or display portlets on WebCenter Portal pages. This argument defaults to 30.

Individual portlets may define their own timeout period, which takes precedence over the value expressed here.

registrationProperties
Optional. A list of registration properties and their values. The format of this argument must be a comma-separated list of valid registration properties, each followed by an equals symbol and the value. For example: name=Producer,key=123. The registration properties for a producer can be found using listWSRPProducerRegistrationProperties. See listWSRPProducerRegistrationProperties.
tokenType
Optional. Type of token profile to use for authentication with this WSRP producer.

When the argument enforcePolicyURI=1, valid values are:

  • USERNAME_WITHOUT_PASSWORD
    (oracle/wss10_username_id_propagation_with_msg_protection_client_policy)—This policy provides message protection (integrity and confidentiality) and identity propagation for outbound SOAP requests in accordance with the WS-Security 1.0 standard. Credentials (user name only) are included in outbound SOAP request messages through a WS-Security UsernameToken header. No password is included.

    Message protection is provided using WS-Security 1.0's Basic128 suite of asymmetric key technologies. Specifically, RSA key mechanisms for message confidentiality, SHA-1 hashing algorithm for message integrity, and AES-128 bit encryption.

  • USERNAME_WITH_PASSWORD
    (oracle/wss10_username_token_with_message_protection_client_policy)—This policy provides message protection (integrity and confidentiality) and authentication for outbound SOAP requests in accordance with the WS-Security v1.0 standard. Both plain text and digest mechanisms are supported.

    This policy uses WS-Security's Basic 128 suite of asymmetric key technologies. Specifically, RSA key mechanism for message confidentiality, SHA-1 hashing algorithm for message integrity, and AES-128 bit encryption.

    Use this token profile if the WSRP producer has a different identity store. You will need to define an external application pertaining to the producer and associate the external application with this producer.

  • SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_INTEGRITY
    (wss10_saml_token_with_message_integrity_client_policy)—This policy provides message-level integrity protection and SAML-based authentication for outbound SOAP requests in accordance with the WS-Security 1.0 standard. A SAML token, included in the SOAP message, is used in SAML-based authentication with sender vouches confirmation.

    This policy uses WS-Security's Basic 128 suite of asymmetric key technologies and SHA-1 hashing algorithm for message integrity.

    When this policy is selected, the recipient key alias (recptAlias) must be disabled.

  • SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION
    (oracle/wss10_saml_token_with_message_protection_client_policy)—This policy provides message-level protection (integrity and confidentiality) and SAML-based authentication for outbound SOAP requests in accordance with the WS-Security 1.0 standard. The Web service consumer includes a SAML token in the SOAP header and the confirmation type is sender-vouches.

    This policy uses WS-Security's Basic 128 suite of asymmetric key technologies. Specifically, RSA key mechanisms for message confidentiality, SHA-1 hashing algorithm for message integrity, and AES-128 bit encryption. and SHA-1 hashing algorithm for message integrity.

tokenType
continued...
  • WSS11_SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION
    (oracle/wss11_saml_token_with_message_protection_client_policy)—This policy provides message-level protection (integrity and confidentiality) and SAML token population for outbound SOAP requests in accordance with the WS-Security 1.1 standard. A SAML token, included in the SOAP message, is used in SAML-based authentication with sender vouches confirmation. This policy uses the symmetric key technology for signing and encryption, and WS-Security's Basic 128 suite of asymmetric key technologies for endorsing signatures.
  • WSS10_SAML_TOKEN_ONLY (oracle/wss10_saml_token_client_policy)—This policy provides SAML-based authentication for outbound SOAP request messages in accordance with the WS-Security 1.0 standard. The policy propagates user identity and is typically used in intra departmental deployments where message protection and integrity checks are not required.

    This policy does not require any keystore configuration.

If the argument enforcePolicyURI=0, you can specify any valid Oracle Web Services Manager (OWSM) policy URI for the tokenType argument.

issuer
Optional. Name of the issuer of the token. The issuer name is the entity that vouches for the verification of the subject. For example: www.oracle.com.

This argument only applies when the tokenType is: SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION, SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_INTEGRITY, WSS10_SAML_TOKEN_ONLY, WSS11_SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION.

defUser
Optional. User name to assert to the remote producer when the user is not authenticated with the WebCenter Portal application.

When unauthenticated, the identity anonymous is associated with the application user. The value anonymous may be inappropriate for the remote producer, so you may need to specify an alternative identity here. Keep in mind though, that in this case, the WebCenter Portal application has not authenticated the user so the default user you specify should be a low privileged user in the remote producer. If the user has authenticated to the application, the user's identity is asserted rather than the default user.

This argument only applies when the tokenType is: USERNAME_WITHOUT_PASSWORD, SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION, SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_INTEGRITY, WSS10_SAML_TOKEN_ONLY, WSS11_SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION.

extApp Optional. This argument applies when the tokenType is USERNAME_WITH_PASSWORD. If this producer uses an external application to store and supply user credentials for authentication, use this argument to name the associated external application.
keyStorePath
Optional. Full path to the key store that contains the certificate and the private key that is used for signing some parts of the SOAP message, such as the security token and SOAP message body. The selected file should be a key store created with the Java keytool.
keyStorePswd
Optional. Password to the key store that was set when the key store was created.
sigKeyAlias
Optional. Identifier for the certificate associated with the private key that is used for signing.
sigKeyPswd
Optional. Password for accessing the key identified by the alias that is specified using the sigKeyAlias argument.
encKeyAlias
Optional. Key alias to be used for encryption. A valid value is one of the key aliases that is located in the specified key store.
encKeyPswd
Optional. Password for accessing the encryption key.
recptAlias
Optional. Key store alias that is associated with the producer's certificate. This certificate is used to encrypt the message to the producer.

Do not specify a recipient key alias when the tokenType is SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_INTEGRITY.

enforcePolicyURI
Optional. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false).When set to 1, users must specify one of the following token profiles for the tokenType argument: USERNAME_WITHOUT_PASSWORD, USERNAME_WITH_PASSWORD, SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION, SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_INTEGRITY, WSS11_SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION,WSS10_SAML_TOKEN_ONLY

When set to 0, users can specify any Oracle Web Services Manager (OWSM) policy URI. The user must ensure that the OWSM policy specified is valid.

The default value is 1.

server
Optional. Name of the managed server where the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. For example, WC_Spaces.

Required when applications with the same name are deployed to different servers and also when you have a cluster.

applicationVersion
Optional. Version number of the deployed application. Required if more than one version of the WebCenter Portal application is deployed.

Examples

The following example registers a WSRP producer named WSRPSamples and registers the WSRP producer with an application named webcenter.

sigKeyAlias
Optional. Identifier for the certificate associated with the private key that is used for signing.
sigKeyPswd
Optional. Password for accessing the key identified by the alias that is specified using the sigKeyAlias argument.
encKeyAlias
Optional. Key alias used by the producer to encrypt the return message. A valid value is one of the key aliases that is located in the specified key store. If not specified, the producer uses the signing key for encrypting the return message.
encKeyPswd
Optional. Password for accessing the encryption key.
recptAlias
Optional. Key store alias that is associated with the producer's certificate. This certificate is used to encrypt the outbound message to the producer.

Do not specify a recipient key alias when the tokenType is SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_INTEGRITY.

enforcePolicyURI 
Optional. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false).When set to 1, users must specify one of the following token profiles for the tokenType argument: USERNAME_WITHOUT_PASSWORD, USERNAME_WITH_PASSWORD, SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION, SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_INTEGRITY, WSS11_SAML_TOKEN_WITH_MSG_PROTECTION, WSS10_SAML_TOKEN_ONLY

When set to 0, users can specify any Oracle Web Services Manager (OWSM) policy URI. The user must ensure that the OWSM policy specified is valid.

The default value is 1.

server
Optional. Name of the managed server where the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. For example, WC_Spaces.

Required when applications with the same name are deployed to different servers and also when you have a cluster.

applicationVersion

registerPDKJavaProducer

Module: Oracle WebCenter Portal

Use with WLST: Online

Description

Creates a connection to an Oracle PDK-Java portlet producer and registers the Oracle PDK-Java producer with a named WebCenter Portal application.

Syntax

registerPDKJavaProducer(appName, name, url, [serviceId], [proxyHost, 
[proxyPort]], [subscriberId], [sharedKey], [timeout], 
[establishSession],[externalApp], [mapUser], [server], [applicationVersion])
Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application for which to perform this operation.
name
Connection name. The name must be unique (across all connection types) within the WebCenter Portal application.
url
URL for the Oracle PDK-Java producer. Use the following syntax:

http://host_name:port_number/context_root/providers

Where:

  • host_name is the server where the producer is deployed

  • port_number is the HTTP Listener port number

  • context_root is the Web application's context root.

  • providers is static text. The text entered here depends on how the producer is deployed.

For example:

http://myHost:7778/myEnterprisePortlets/providers

serviceId
Optional. Service ID of the producer.

PDK-Java enables you to deploy multiple producers under a single adapter servlet. Producers are identified by their unique service ID. A service ID is required only if the service ID is not appended to the URL end point.

For example, the following URL endpoint requires sample as the service ID:

http://domain.us.oracle.com:7778/axyz/providers

However, the following URL endpoint, does not require a service ID:

http://domain.us.oracle.com:7778/axyz/providers/sample

The service ID is used to look up a file called <service_id>.properties, which defines the characteristics of the producer, such as whether to display its test page. Use any value to create the service ID.

proxyHost
Optional. Host name or IP address of the proxy server.

A proxy is required if the WebCenter Portal application and the remote portlet producer are separated by a firewall and an HTTP proxy is needed for communication with the producer.

proxyPort
Optional. Port number on which the proxy server listens. This argument defaults to 80.
sharedKey
Optional. Shared key used for message authentication with the remote producer. Message authentication ensures that the incoming messages are sent from a host with a shared key. This argument defaults to null.

The shared key can contain between 10 and 20 alphanumeric characters.

subscriberId
Optional. Consumer's identifier, if required.

When a producer is registered with an application, a call is made to the producer. During the call, the consumer (WebCenter Portal application in this instance) passes the value for subscriberId to the producer. The producer may be coded to use the subscriber ID.

timeout
Optional. Timeout setting for communications with the producer, in seconds. For example, the maximum time the producer may take to register, deregister, or display portlets on WebCenter Portal pages.

This argument defaults to 30.

Individual portlets may define their own timeout period, which takes precedence over the value expressed here.

establishSession
Optional. Enable a user session when executing portlets from this producer. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false). The default for this argument is 0.

When sessions are enabled (1), the server maintains session-specific information, such as the user name. Message authentication uses sessions, so if a shared key is specified, this option should also be enabled. For sessionless communication between the producer and the server, specify 0.

externalApp
Optional. Name of the external application with which to associate the producer. Required if one of this producer's portlets requires authentication.
mapUser
Optional. Flag indicating whether the mapped user name from the external application should be passed to the producer. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false). This argument defaults to 1.
server
Optional. Name of the managed server where the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. For example, WC_Spaces.

Required when applications with the same name are deployed to different servers and also when you have a cluster.

applicationVersion
Optional. Version number of the deployed application. Required if more than one version of the WebCenter Portal application is deployed.

Example

The following example creates and registers an Oracle PDK-Java producer named JPDKSamples, for an application named webcenter.

wls:/weblogic/serverConfig> registerPDKJavaProducer(appName='webcenter', 
name='JPDKSamples', url='http://myhost:9999/jpdk/providers/sample')

setPDKJavaProducer

Module: Oracle WebCenter Portal

Use with WLST: Online

Description

Edits registration details for an existing PDK-Java producer.

Syntax

setPDKJavaProducer(appName, name, url, [serviceId], [proxyHost, [proxyPort]], 
[subscriberId], [sharedKey], [timeout], [establishSession], [externalApp], 
[mapUser], [server], [applicationVersion])
Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application in which to perform this operation.
name
Name of an existing PDK-Java producer.
url
URL for the Oracle PDK-Java producer. Use the following syntax:

http://host_name:port_number/context_root/providers

Where:

  • host_name is the server where the producer is deployed

  • port_number is the HTTP Listener port number

  • context_root is the Web application's context root.

  • providers is static text. The text entered here depends on how the producer is deployed.

For example:

http://myHost:7778/myEnterprisePortlets/providers

serviceId
Optional. Service ID of the producer.

PDK-Java enables you to deploy multiple producers under a single adapter servlet. Producers are identified by their unique service ID. A service ID is required only if the service ID is not appended to the URL end point.

For example the following URL endpoint requires sample as the service ID:

http://domain.us.oracle.com:7778/axyz/providers

However, the following URL endpoint, does not require a service ID:

http://domain.us.oracle.com:7778/axyz/providers/sample

The service ID is used to look up a file called <service_id>.properties, which defines the characteristics of the producer, such as whether to display its test page. Use any value to create the service ID.

proxyHost
Optional. Host name or IP address of the proxy server.

A proxy is required if the WebCenter Portal application and the remote portlet producer are separated by a firewall and an HTTP proxy is needed for communication with the producer.

proxyPort
Optional. Port number on which the proxy server listens.
subscriberId
Optional. Consumer's identifier, if required.

When a producer is registered with an application, a call is made to the producer. During the call, the consumer (WebCenter Portal application in this instance) passes the value for Subscriber ID to the producer. If the producer does not see the expected value for Subscriber ID, it might reject the registration call.

sharedKey
Optional. The shared key is used for message authentication with the remote producer. Message authentication ensures that the incoming messages are sent from a host with a shared key. You should enable sessions using the sharedKey argument, as well as the establishSession argument.
timeout
Optional. Timeout setting for communications with the producer, in seconds. For example, the maximum time the producer may take to register, deregister, or display portlets on WebCenter Portal pages.

Individual portlets may define their own timeout period, which takes precedence over the value expressed here.

establishSession
Optional. Enable a user session when executing portlets from this producer. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false). You should enable sessions using the establishSession argument, as well as the sharedKey argument.

When sessions are enabled (1), the server maintains session-specific information, such as the user name. Message authentication uses sessions, so if a shared key is specified, this option should also be enabled. For sessionless communication between the producer and the server, set to 0.

externalApp
Optional. Name of the external application associated with this producer.
mapUser
Optional. Flag indicating whether the mapped user name from the external application should be passed to the producer. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false).
server
Optional. Name of the managed server where the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. For example, WC_Spaces.

Required when applications with the same name are deployed to different servers and also when you have a cluster.

applicationVersion
Optional. Version number of the deployed application. Required if more than one version of the WebCenter Portal application is deployed.

Example

The following example changes a PDK-Java producer registered with MyApp to use a proxy server.

wls:/weblogic/serverConfig> setPDKJavaProducer(appName='MyApp', 
name='MyProducer', url='http://myhost.com/jpdk/providers/sample', 
proxyHost='myproxy.com', proxyPort=80)

setSpacesCrawlProperties

Module: Oracle WebCenter Portal

Use with WLST: Online

Description

Specifies crawl properties for WebCenter Portal applications.

WebCenter Portal applications can be crawled by Oracle SES to provide a faster, more unified search experience across WebCenter Portal objects, specifically: spaces, lists, pages, people (profiles), wikis, blogs, documents, discussions, and announcements. Three distinct crawlers make this possible:

  • Spaces Crawler (for spaces, lists, pages, and people)

  • Documents Crawler (for documents, wikis, blogs)

  • Discussions Crawler (for discussions and announcements).

Use this command to enable or disable Oracle SES crawlers in WebCenter Portal applications:

  • Spaces application—To use Oracle SES crawlers in the Spaces application, you must enable all three crawlers.

  • Framework applications—To use Oracle SES crawlers in WebCenter Portal applications, you must enable both the documents and discussions crawlers. The Spaces crawler is not applicable.

(Spaces application only) You can also use this command to specify an interval between full crawls for the Spaces crawler. During a full crawl, all of the Spaces crawler content is re-read. Out-of-the-box, full crawls for the Spaces crawler occur every seven days but you can specify a different frequency to suit your installation.

Note that incremental crawls, for all three crawlers, are initiated by a scheduler running from Oracle SES. During these incremental crawls, only content added or updated since the previous crawl is processed.

Syntax

setSpacesCrawlProperties(appName, [fullCrawlIntervalInHours, spacesCrawlEnabled, documentCrawlEnabled, discussionsCrawlEnabled, server, applicationVersion])
Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application.
fullCrawlIntervalInHours
Optional. (Spaces application only) Number of hours between full crawls. The default is 168 hours or 7 days.
spacesCrawlEnabled
Optional. Specifies whether the Spaces Crawler is enabled in Oracle SES. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false). This argument defaults to 0.

When set to 0, WebCenter Portal's internal search adapters return search results.

documentCrawlEnabled
Optional. Specifies whether the Documents Crawler is enabled in Oracle SES. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false). This argument defaults to 0.

When set to 0, WebCenter Portal's internal search adapters return search results.

discussionsCrawlEnabled
Optional. Specifies whether the Discussions Crawler is enabled in Oracle SES. Valid values are 1 (true) and 0 (false). This argument defaults to 0.

When set to 0, WebCenter Portal's internal search adapters return search results.

server
Optional. Name of the managed server where the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. For example, WC_Spaces.

Required when applications with the same name are deployed to different servers and also when you have a cluster.

applicationVersion
Optional. Version number of the deployed application. Required if more than one version of the WebCenter Portal application is deployed.

Description

Creates a connection to a BPEL server for a named WebCenter Portal application. BPEL server connections can be used by the application's Worklist service and Spaces workflows.

To configure the Worklist service to actively use a new BPEL server connection, use the addWorklistConnection command. See addWorklistConnection.

To specify the BPEL server connection that Spaces uses for its internal workflows, use the setSpacesWorkflowConnectionName command. See setSpacesWorkflowConnectionName.

Syntax

createBPELConnection(appName, name, url, [policy, recipientKeyAlias, linkUrl, server, applicationVersion])
Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application in which to perform this operation.
name
Connection name. The name must be unique (across all connection types) within the WebCenter Portal application.
url
URL required to access the BPEL server.

Use the format: protocol://host:port

The BPEL server URL must be unique within the WebCenter Portal application.

policy
Optional. SAML token policy this connection uses for authentication. Enter any valid policy. Valid values include:
  • oracle/wss10_saml_token_client_policy—use to access the BPEL server with the default, non message protected policy.

  • oracle/wss10_saml_token_with_message_protection_client_policy—use to access the BPEL server with a message protected policy. If selected, you must configure keys stores both in your WebCenter Portal application and in the BPEL application.

  • GPA—use if your environment supports Global Policy Attachments (GPA).

If you omit this argument, the connection defaults to oracle/wss10_saml_token_client_policy.

recipientKeyAlias 
Optional. Recipient key alias to be used for message protected SAML policy authentication. Only required when the BPEL server connection is using a SAML token policy for authentication and the application's Worklist service is using multiple BPEL server connections.

The default is null.

See also "Configuring WS-Security for WebCenter Portal Applications and Components" in the Oracle Fusion Middleware Administrator's Guide for Oracle WebCenter.

linkUrl 
Optional. URL used to link to the BPEL server. Only required if it is different to the url argument. For example, when SSO or HTTPS is configured.

Use the format: protocol://host:port

The default is null.

For performance reasons, in an HTTPS or SSO environment, linkUrl specifies user access to BPEL worklist items, through HTTPS or SSO Web servers, whereas url specifies direct access to BPEL Web services, without redirection through HTTPS or SSO Web servers.

server
Optional. Name of the managed server where the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. For example, WC_Spaces.

Required when applications with the same name are deployed to different servers and also when you have a cluster.

applicationVersion
Optional. Version number of the deployed application. Required if more than one version of the WebCenter Portal application is deployed.

Examples

setWebCenterIdStoreSearchConfig

Module: Oracle WebCenter Portal

Use with WLST: Online

Description

Modifies configuration options for searching a WebCenter Portal application's identity store. Use these settings to optimize identity store searches (for users and roles) in a WebCenter Portal application.

Identity store search parameters are stored in adf-config.xml. If a search parameter is not specified, it is not modified.

Syntax

setWebCenterIdStoreSearchConfig(appName,[narrowSearchTimeout, broadSearchTimeout, maxSearchFilters, maxFetchRecords, server, applicationVersion])
Argument Definition
appName
Name of the WebCenter Portal application in which to perform this operation.
narrowSearchTimeout
Optional. Maximum time allowed (in ms) for small, simple searches, such as fetching a single user from the identity store. The out-of-the-box default is 30000ms.
broadSearchTimeout
Optional. Maximum time allowed (in ms) to return large result sets, such as returning users and roles that match a name pattern. The out-of-the-box default is 60000.
maxSearchFilters
Optional. Number of search filters allowed for the WebCenter Portal application's identity store. The maximum allowed, out-of-the-box, is 100.

Some identity store searches are executed using search filters which are converted into LDAP search calls. If your associated LDAP server limits the search condition, you can set the maxSearchFilters property to match your LDAP server setting.

maxFetchRecords
Optional. Maximum number of records to be returned from each search query. The out-of-the-box default is 100.

The value of this setting will impact the performance of your LDAP server so take this into consideration when increasing the search result limit.

Note that the LDAP server imposes its own search result limit, so the actual limit that is used will be the lesser of these two values.

server
Optional. Name of the managed server where the WebCenter Portal application is deployed. For example, WC_Spaces.

Required when applications with the same name are deployed to different servers and also when you have a cluster.

applicationVersion
Optional. Version number of the deployed application. Required if more than one version of the WebCenter Portal application is deployed.

Example

The following example increases both identity store search timeouts.
