Deployment Example 2: Federation Using SAML v2

ProcedureTo Install Federation Manager Server 1

Before You Begin

If you have installed Solaris 10 using a distribution package other than the Solaris Enterprise distribution package, then you must remove the SUNWjas and SUNWjato packages that were automatically installed for you. These packages are different versions than the SUNWjas and SUNWjato packages used by Federation Manager. The appropriate packages will be installed when you run the Federation Manager installer.

  1. Download the Sun Java System Federation Manager program from the following page on the Sun Microsystems website: http://www.sun.com/download/products.xml?id=44a5bbb5

  2. Unpack the Federation Manager installer.


    # tar -xvf fm-7.0-domestic-us.sparc-sun-solaris2.8.tar
    
    # ls
    LICENSE.TXT
    README.TXT
    SUNWamfm
    common
    fm-7.0-domestic-us.sparc-sun-solaris2.8.tar
    fmsetup
    fmsilent-template
  3. Edit the download_directory/fmsilent-template file.

    Make a backup of the fmsilent-template file, and then set the following properties in the file:


    FM_PROCESS_USER=root
    FM_PROCESS_GROUP=root
    INST_ORGANIZATION=o=siroe.com
    SERVER_HOST=FederationManager-1.siroe.com
    SERVER_PORT=8080
    ADMINPASSWD=11111111
  4. Save the file as /export/fmsilent.

  5. (Optional) For online help regarding the Federation Manager installer options, enter the following with no options:


    # ./fmsetup
  6. To start the Federation Manager installer, run the following command:


    # ./fmsetup install -s /export/fmsilent
Next Steps

The Federation Manager installer creates the following web archive (WAR) file:

/var/opt/SUNWam/fm/war_staging/federation.war

You usually customize the Federation Manager WAR file for the environment before the WAR file can be deployed. In a deployment where SAMLv2 is not used, you could customize and deploy the Federation Manager WAR file now. However in this deployment example, you will install the SAMLv2 plug-in and the SAMLv2 patch before you customize the Federation Manager WAR file. So proceed directly to the next task, To Deploy the Federation Manager 1 WAR File.
