Delegate MBean authorization to the realm

Before you begin

If you Enable automatic realm restart in the security realm, you do not need to restart WebLogic Server after activating the configuration settings described in this topic.


By default, WebLogic Server uses a separate, internal security component to enforce its default policies for MBeans (see Default Security Policies for MBeans). If you want to modify the default security policies for MBeans, you must first enable the security realm to control access to MBeans (instead of the internal security component).

To enable the security realm to control access to MBeans:

  1. If you have not already done so, in the Change Center of the Administration Console, click Lock & Edit (see Use the Change Center).
  2. In the left pane of the Administration Console, select Security Realms.
  3. On the Summary of Security Realms page, select the name of the realm that you want to control access to MBeans (for example, myrealm).
  4. On the Settings page, select the Configuration tab. Then select the General subtab.
  5. Select the Use Authorization Providers to Protect JMX Access check box.
  6. Click Save.
  7. In the Change Center, click Activate Changes. If automatic realm restart is enabled, you do not need to restart WebLogic Server for changes to go into effect.

After you finish

Create JMX policies.
