Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Administration Guide

ProcedureTo Create a New Group

Agents can inherit properties from their group. For example, web policy agents can inherit properties from a web policy agent group.

Caution – Caution –

The Group functionality is not supported with the web services and STS Client Agent Profiles.

Before You Begin

This procedure assumes you are logged into the OpenSSO Enterprise console as the administrator; by default, amadmin.

  1. Under the Access Control tab, click the name of the realm to which the group will belong.

  2. Click the Agents tab.

  3. Select the tab for the appropriate agent type.

  4. In the Group section, click New.

  5. Enter a name for the new group.

  6. Enter the OpenSSO Enterprise Server URL (for Web and J2EE policy agents only).

    For example, http://OpenSSO-Host.example.com:8080/OpenSSO Enterprise. 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.

  7. Click Create.

    The agent group is created. To do additional configurations for the agent group, click the group name to display the Edit Group page. Attribute descriptions are listed and defined in Chapter 5, Centralized Agent Configuration Attributes, in Sun OpenSSO Enterprise 8.0 Administration Reference. (The properties you can set for a group are almost the same as those for an individual agent; the Group, Password, and Password Confirm properties are not available at the group level.)

    Caution – Caution –

    Some group properties have variable values assigned that, in most cases, should not be changed. @AGENT_PROTO@://@AGENT_HOST@:@AGENT_PORT@/amagent is an example of such a value.
