NAME

 create-connector-security-map - creates or modifies a security map for the specified connector connection pool

SYNOPSIS

 create-connector-security-map --user admin_user [--passwordfile filename] [--host host_name] [--port port_number] [--secure|-s] [--terse=false] [--echo=false] [--interactive=true] [--help] --poolname connector_connection_pool_name [--principals principal_name1[ , principal_name2 ]* | --usergroups user_group1[ , user_group2 ]*] [--mappedusername username ] security_map_name

DESCRIPTION

Use this command to create or modify a security map for the specified connector connection pool. If the security map is not present, one is created. Also, use this command to map the caller identity of the application (principal or user group) to a suitable EIS principal in container-managed transaction-based scenarios. One or more named security maps may be associated with a connector connection pool. The connector security map configuration supports the use of the wild card asterisk (*) to indicate all users or all user groups.

For this command to succeed, you must have first created a connector connection pool using the create-connector-connection-pool command.

The enterprise information system (EIS) is any system that holds the information. It can be a mainframe, a messaging system, a database system, or an application.

This command is supported in remote mode only.

OPTIONS

If an option has a short option name, then the short option preceeds the long option name. Short options have one dash whereas long options have two dashes.

-u --user

The authorized domain application server administrative username.

-w --password

The --password option is deprecated. Use --passwordfile instead.

--passwordfile

This option replaces the -- password option. Using the --password option on the command line or through the environment is deprecated. The --passwordfile option specifies the name of a file containing the password entries in a specified format. The entry for the password must have the AS_ADMIN prefix followed by the password name in capital letters. For example, to specify the domain application server password, use an entry with the following format: AS_ADMIN_PASSWORD=password, where password is the actual administrator password. Other passwords that can be specified include MAPPEDPASSWORD, USERPASSWORD, SAVEDMASTERPASSWORD, MQPASSWORD, ALIASPASSWORD, and so on.

-H --host

The machine name where the domain application server is running. The default value is localhost.

-p --port

The port number of the domain application server listening for administration requests. The default port number for Platform Edition is 4848. The default port number for Enterprise Edition is 4949.

-s --secure

If set to true, uses SSL/TLS to communicate with the domain application server.

-t --terse

Indicates that any output data must be very concise, typically avoiding human-friendly sentences and favoring well-formatted data for consumption by a script. Default is false.

-e --echo

Setting to true will echo the command line statement on the standard output. Default is false.

-I --interactive

If set to true (default), only the required password options are prompted.

-h --help

Displays the help text for the command.

--target

The -target option is deprecated in this release.

--poolname

This property specifies the name of the connector connection pool to which the security map that is to be updated or created belongs.

--principals

This property specifies a comma-separated list of application-specific principals. Use either the -principals or -usergroups options, but not both.

--usergroups

This property specifies a comma-separated list of application--specific user groups. Use either the -principals or -usergroups options, but not both.

--mappedusername

This property specifies the EIS username.

--mappedpassword

The --mappedpassword option is deprecated. Use --passwordfile pointing to a file that contains an entry in the following format: AS_ADMIN_MAPPEDPASSWORD=mapped-password. If not specified using the passwordfile option, the user will be prompted for this password by the asadmin command-line tool.

OPERANDS

security_map_name

name of the security map to be created.

EXAMPLES

Example 1. Using create-connector-security-map

It is assumed that the connector pool has already been created using the create-connector-pool command.

asadmin> create-connector-security-map --user admin 
--poolname connector-pool1 --principals principal1, principal2  
--mappedusername backend-username securityMap1
