You can create a new agent profile using the OpenSSO Enterprise console. Some of the individual steps documented do not apply to all agent profile types.
This procedure assumes you are logged into the OpenSSO Enterprise console as the administrator; by default, amadmin.
Under the Access Control tab, click the name of the realm in which you are creating the agent profile.
Click the Agents tab.
Select the tab for the appropriate agent type.
In the Agent section, click New.
The STS Client agent profile displays a pop-up from which you choose the token agent type: Discovery or STS. For more information, see STS Client in Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Administration Reference.
In the Name field, enter the name for the new agent profile.
Enter and confirm the Password.
For web policy agents only, this password must be the same password that you enter in the agent profile password file that you specify when you run the agentadmin program to install the agent.
Steps 7–9 Apply to Web and J2EE policy agents only.
For Web and J2EE policy agents only, configure using the following sub procedure.
For other agent profile types, configure the attributes as documented in Chapter 5, Centralized Agent Configuration Attributes, in Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Administration Reference.
Select Local or Centralized configuration.
When local configuration is selected, the properties related to this agent cannot be edited using the console. In such a scenario, the agent retrieves configuration data from the local (to the installed agent) OpenSSOAgentBootstrap.properties and OpenSSOAgentConfiguration.properties files in the agent installation directory. Property values for the locally configured agents are modified directly in the OpenSSOAgentConfiguration.properties file.
In the Server URL field, enter the OpenSSO Enterprise server URL.
For example:
http://OpenSSO-Host.example.com:8080/OpenSSO
In the Agent URL field, enter the URL for the agent application, agentapp.
For a web policy agent: http://Agent-Host.example.com:8090
For a J2EE policy agent: http://Agent-Host.example.com:8090/agentapp
Click Create.
The agent profile is created. To do additional configurations for the agent profile, click the profile name to display the Edit agent page. Agent attribute descriptions are listed and defined in Chapter 5, Centralized Agent Configuration Attributes, in Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Administration Reference.
