When the custom adapters for federated repositories are
part of the default realm, the users and groups can be managed using
wsadmin commands or the administrative console.
About this task
If custom adapters for federated repositories are part of
the default realm, you use the administrative console to manage the
users and groups in the realm.
Note: The default parent for PersonAccount
and Group entities needs to be the same as the base entry of the custom
adapter.
To view this administrative console page, complete
the following steps:
- In the administrative console, click Security > Global security.
- Under User account repository, select Federated repositories from
the Available realm definitions field and click Configure.
To configure for a specific domain in a multiple security domain environment,
click Security domains > domain_name. Under Security
Attributes, expand User Realm, and click Customize for this
domain. Select the Realm type as Federated repositories and
then click Configure.
- Under Additional properties, click Supported entity types.
You must configure the supported entity types before you
can manage this account with Users and Groups in the administrative
console. The Base entry for the default parent determines the repository
location where entities of the specified type are placed on write
operations by user and group management.
What to do next
Adjustments to the custom adapter can be made by using the
wsadmin tool to make configuration changes. See
Configuring custom adapters for federated repositories using wsadmin for more details.
