Steps described in this section might be required, depending on your site's specific deployment.
If the agent is installed and configured to operate in the URL_POLICY mode or ALL mode, the appropriate URL policies must be created. For instance, if IBM WebSphere Application Server 5.1.1 is available on port 8080 using HTTP protocol, at least a policy must be created to allow access to the following resource:
http://myhost.mydomain.com:8080/sampleApp/ |
where sampleApp is the context URI for the sample application.
If no policies are defined and the agent is configured to operate in the URL_POLICY mode or ALL mode, then no user is allowed access to IBM WebSphere Application Server 5.1.1 resources. See Sun Java System Access Manager 7 2005Q4 Administration Guide to learn how to create these policies using the Access Manager Console or command-line utilities.
This is a conditional post-installation step that must be performed when the J2EE agent is installed on the same deployment container that hosts Access Manager. Note that Access Manager should be installed prior to the agent being installed. Therefore, the order to install these servers on the same machine is as follows:
Deployment container
Access Manager
J2EE agent
This type of deployment not only requires that you perform a post-installation configuration step as described in the next subsection, this type of deployment also changes where J2EE agent debug log files are stored. For more information, see Locating the J2EE Agent Debug Log Files for Policy Agent 2.2.
After the J2EE agent is installed, it must use the Remote Client SDK provided by the Access Manager installation.
Modify the Access Manager configuration file, AMConfig.properties, by specifically adding the following entry, which contains the agent configuration location information:
com.sun.identity.agents.config.location = PolicyAgent-base/AgentInstance-Dir/config/AMAgent.properties |
Installing the J2EE agent and Access Manager on the same deployment container changes the file to which the J2EE agent debug log entries are written. This change occurs because the location of the debug files is set in the properties configuration file. In this type of deployment, two configuration files exist on the same host. However, the Access Manager AMConfig.properties configuration file takes precedence over the J2EE agent AMAgent.properties configuration file.
When the J2EE agent and the Access Manager are installed on separate hosts the debug information is stored in the following directory:
PolicyAgent-base/AgentInstance-Dir/logs/debug
However, when the J2EE agent and Access Manager are installed on the same host, the agent-specific debug information is stored in the following Access Manager directory:
/var/opt/SUNWam/debug |
