Configure WebLogic Open LDAP Users

STA supports authenticating users with Open LDAP. This service, however, must be set up separately from STA, since it is not built directly into the application. To configure Open LDAP for STA, follow the steps below.

Note – You must set up Open LDAP on a separate server.

1.
Point your browser to the WebLogic console login screen.

http://yourHostName:7001/console/

or

https://yourHostName:7002/console/

Note – Use the HTTP or HTTPS port number you selected during STA installation.

2.
Log in using the WebLogic Admin Console username and password you defined during STA installation.
3.
Click Security Realms.

4.
Click myrealm (select the name itself, you cannot check the box).

5.
Click the Providers tab.

6.
Click Lock & Edit.

7.
Click New.

8.
Enter the name of the authentication provider and select OpenLDAPAuthenticator in the Type list. Click OK.

1.
Authentication provider name
2.
Authentication provider type
9.
Select DefaultAthenticator (select the name itself, you cannot not check the box) and change the Control Flag to Sufficient. Click Save.

10.
Click the Providers locator link to return to the Authentication Providers screen.

11.
Select openLdapauthenticator (select the name itself, you cannot check the box) and change the Control Flag to Sufficient. Click Save.

12.
Click the Provider Specific secondary tab for the openLdapAuthenticator settings.

13.
Enter the following parameters, specifying the settings for your specific LDAP server set up.

The settings below apply to the lses-ldap1 server and are specific to each customer environment.
•
host = lses-ldap1
•
port = 389
•
Principal = leave blank
•
Credential = leave blank
•
User Base DN = ou=people,dc=oracle,dc=eng
•
User From Name Filter = (&(cn=%u)(objectclass=inetOrgPerson))
•
User Object Class = inetOrgPerson
•
Group Base DN = ou=groups,dc=oracle,dc=eng
•
Group From Name Filter = (&(cn=%g)(objectclass=groupofnames))
14.
Click Save.
15.
Click Activate Changes.

16.
Test the configuration by selecting either the Users or Groups tab under the Security Realms > myrealm > Users and Groups screen. The entries in the example below belong to the openLdapAuthenticator provider.

Note – You must restart the Admin server in the CLI before running this test. For the command syntax, see the “STA Command” section within the StorageTek Tape Analytics Administration Reference Guide.
17.
Log in to STA using the user that belongs to the StorageTapeAnalyticsUser role (this was set up in LDAP Server during STA Installation).
