saml2setup takes as input an installation configuration properties file. See Creating an Installation Configuration Properties File for more information.

The subcommands of saml2setup are:

install

Installs the SAML v2 Plug-in for Federation Services packages, configures the plug-in, and generates a WAR. 

Note –

The function of this subcommand will change when run using the -p option.

uninstall

Removes the SAML v2 Plug-in for Federation Services and its packages. 

configure

Configures the plug-in and generates a WAR only. 

unconfigure

Removes a configured SAML v2 Plug-in for Federation Services and WAR but leaves the packages, allowing for future reconfiguration using the configure subcommand.

update

Updates a previously configured staging directory with new files from a patch installation directory and then regenerates a WAR file for deployment. 

Note –

Use the update option after you install a new SAML v2 plug-in patch or Access Manager 7.x patch, so you can avoid the unconfigure and configure routine, which will remove your existing metadata.
