Synchronizing Account Information Between OpenSSO and Web Space Server

By default, the OpenSSO Add-On enables automatic, one-way synchronization of user accounts on an OpenSSO server and a Web Space Server. For example, if a user account is deleted on the OpenSSO server, the corresponding user account is deleted in Web Space Server.

This automatic synchronization, which is enabled by default, can be disabled or enabled by means of the access.manager.sync.enabled property in the portal-ext.properties for the Web Space Server domain.

To Disable or Enable Automatic Synchronization

1. Change to the webspace_dir/var/webspace/war-workspace/customs/webspace/WEB-INF/classes directory.

2. Edit the portal-ext.properties file, modifying the access.manager.sync.enabled as follows.

   • access.manager.sync.enabled=true – Automatic synchronization is enabled (default)

   • access.manager.sync.enabled=false – Automatic synchronization is disabled

3. Stop the Web Space Server domain.

4. Change to the webspace_dir/var/webspace/war-workspace directory.

5. Run the synchronize.xml Ant script.

   ant -f synchronize.xml

6. Restart the Web Space Server.
