Overview of the amconfig Script and amsamplesilent File

After you run the Java Enterprise System installer, the Access Manager amconfig script and silent configuration input file (amsamplesilent) are available in the following directory, depending on your platform:

• Solaris systems: AccessManager-base/SUNWam/bin

• Linux systems: AccessManager-base/identity/bin

AccessManager-base represents the Access Manager base installation directory. The default base installation directory depends on your platform:

• Solaris systems: /opt

• Linux systems: /opt/sun

Use the amconfig script and amsamplesilent file (or a copy of the file) to perform these functions:

• Configure an Access Manager instance that you installed by running the Java ES installer in Configure Later mode.

• Deploy and configure additional instances of Access Manager.

• Reconfigure or redeploy an Access Manager instance.

• Deploy and configure specific Access Manager components, including:

  • Access Manager Console

  • Access Manager client SDK

  • Distributed Authentication UI server

  • Federation Manager

• Generate an Access Manager WAR file that you can deploy on other host servers.

• Uninstall Access Manager instances and components that you deployed using the amconfig script.
