Deployment Example 2: Federation Using SAML v2

Before You Begin

To download the SAMLv2 Patch 2, go to one of the following URLs and follow instructions for downloading the patch for your operating system:

  1. Go to the directory where you downloaded and upacked the SAMLv2 patch installation file.


    #cd /temp/saml2patch/122983-02
    #ls
    LEGAL_LICENSE.TXT
    LICENSE.TXT
    patchinfo
    postbackout
    postpatch
    prebackout
    prepatch
    README.122983-02
    rel_notes.html
    SUNWsaml2
  2. Run the SAMLv2 patch installer.

    The —G option in the following example is for Solaris 10 zones. The option is not necessary if you are not using the Solaris 10 platform.


    # cd /temp/saml2patch
    # patchadd -G 122983-02

    When installation is complete, you will see the following message:


    Patch packages installed:
    					SUNWsaml2
  3. Go to the directory where the saml2silent file is located.


    # cd /opt/SUNWam/saml2/bin
  4. Run the update command.


    # ./saml2setup update -s /opt/SUNWam/saml2/bin/saml2silent

    Any updates required because of the newly-installed patch are made in SAMLv2.

  5. Redeploy the Federation Manager 1 WAR file.

    At this point, the Federation Manager WAR file has been updated with SAMLv2 and SAMLv2 patch configurations. Once the WAR file is updated, you must deploy the WAR file.
