Type-Safe Access to BEA WebLogic Server 9.2 MBeans (Deprecated)

Deprecation of MBeanHome and Type-Safe Interfaces

This is a type-safe interface for a WebLogic Server MBean, which you can import into your client classes and access through weblogic.management.MBeanHome. As of 9.0, the MBeanHome interface and all type-safe interfaces for WebLogic Server MBeans are deprecated. Instead, client classes that interact with WebLogic Server MBeans should use standard JMX design patterns in which clients use the javax.management.MBeanServerConnection interface to discover MBeans, attributes, and attribute types at runtime. For more information, see "Developing Manageable Applications with JMX" on http://www.oracle.com/technology/documentation/index.html.

Method Detail

getBadDomainControllerRetry

public String getBadDomainControllerRetry()

Determines how the provider reacts when a bad domain controller name is found.

Possible settings:


getBadDomainControllerRetryInterval

public Integer getBadDomainControllerRetryInterval()

This time to wait when a bad domain controller name is found before trying to use the domain controller again. Use if the BadDomainControllerRetry is set to Delay. This setting helps reduces performance hits when a domain controller in the list of controllers is temporarily unavailable


getDescription

public String getDescription()

The Windows NT Authentication provider enables Windows NT users and groups to be used for authentication purposes.

Specified by:
getDescription in interface ProviderMBean

getDomainControllerList

public String[] getDomainControllerList()

A list of the domain controllers used for locating unscoped usernames during authentication, listing users/groups, and handling unscoped names.Use if the Domain Controllers is set to List.

The specified list should contain the domain controller names in trusted domains. Placeholders are supported and will expand if specified. Supported placeholders are [Local],[LocalAndDomain], [Domain].


getDomainControllers

public String getDomainControllers()

The domain controllers used for locating unscoped usernames during authentication, listing users/groups, and handling unscoped names.

Possible settings:


getLogonType

public String getLogonType()

Specfies whether the logon process should use Network or Interactive logon.


getMapNTDomainName

public String getMapNTDomainName()

Specifies whether the Windows NT domain information should be placed into principal names during authentication.

Possible settings:


getMapUPNNames

public String getMapUPNNames()

Indicates how the Windows NT Authentication provider should map UPN-style names for authentication (meaning will username@domain be used).

Possible settings:

This setting should only be used when there are no usernames with @. domain\\username is not ambiguous and is always allowed.


getName

public String getName()
Description copied from interface: ProviderMBean
The name of this configuration. WebLogic Server uses an MBean to implement and persist the configuration.

Specified by:
getName in interface weblogic.management.commo.StandardInterface

getProviderClassName

public String getProviderClassName()

The name of the Java class used to load the Windows NT Authentication provider.

Specified by:
getProviderClassName in interface ProviderMBean
Excluded: Should not appear in public javadocs
Internal: Should not appear in public javadocs

getVersion

public String getVersion()

The version number of the Windows NT Authentication provider.

Specified by:
getVersion in interface ProviderMBean
