Completing and testing the SSO integration

The final step in setting up the SSO integration is to add the OHS server host name and port to portal-ext.properties.

To complete and test the SSO configuration:

  1. In portal-ext.properties:

    If OHS is not using SSL, then add the following lines:

    web.server.host=ohsHostName
    web.server.http.port=ohsPortNumber

    If OHS is using SSL, then add the following lines:

    web.server.protocol=https
    web.server.host=ohsHostName
    web.server.https.port=ohsPortNumber
    Where:
    • ohsHostName is the fully qualified domain name (FQDN) of the server where OHS is installed. The name must be resolvable by Big Data Discovery users.

      For example, you would use webserver01.company.com, and not webserver01.

      You need to specify this even if OHS is on the same server as Big Data Discovery.

    • ohsPortNumber is the port number used by OHS.
  2. Restart Big Data Discovery.

    Make sure to completely restart the browser to remove any cookies or sessions associated with the Big Data Discovery user login you used earlier.

  3. Navigate to the Big Data Discovery URL. The Oracle Access Manager SSO form displays.
  4. Enter your SSO authentication credentials.

    You are logged in to Big Data Discovery.

    As you navigate around Big Data Discovery, make sure that the browser URL continues to point to the OHS server and port.
