Deployment Example: Single Sign-On, Load Balancing and Failover Using Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0

ProcedureTo Create a Sub Realm

When a sub realm is created it inherits configuration data (including which user data store) from / (Top Level Realm) (the default root realm) and uses it to authenticate users. The user data store can be modified per sub realm. In this deployment, we use the inherited GenericLDAPv3 data store.
