Sun Java System Portal Server Secure Remote Access 7.2 Administration Guide

ProcedureTo Create a Gateway Profile

  1. Log into the Portal Server administration console as administrator.

  2. Click the Secure Remote Access tab and click New Profile.

    The New Profile page is displayed.

  3. Enter the name of the new gateway profile.

  4. Select the profile to use for creating the new profile from the drop-down list.

    By default, any new profile that you create is based on the pre-packaged Default profile. If you have created a custom profile, you can select that profile from the drop-down list. The new profile inherits all the attributes of the selected profile.

    The existing profile that is copied for the new one, copies the same port. Change the port for the new profile so that it does not conflict with the existing one.

  5. Click OK.

    The new profile is created and listed in the Profiles page.


    Caution – Caution –

    Ensure that you change the port of the instance so that it does not clash with any existing port in use.


  6. Telnet to the machine where the instance needs to be created. The default gateway instance is up and running at this machine.

  7. Install AM-SDK in configure now mode.

  8. Install Gateway using UI installer in configure now mode or select configure later mode.

  9. Copy the /opt/SUNWportal/template/sra/GWConfig.properties.template file to a temporary location . For example, /tmp.

  10. Modify the values as required.


    Note –

    The values should match the port numbers in the gateway instance for the new profile.


  11. Once complete, run the following command:

    ./psadmin create-sra-instance -u amadmin -f <passwordfile> -S <template file location>.template -t gateway

  12. Restart the Gateway with this gateway profile name to ensure the changes to take effect:

    ./psadmin start-sra-instance –u amadmin – f <password file> –N <profile name>– t <gateway>
