Content Platform Engine, Version 5.2.1            

Configure multiple realms

You can create multiple authentication realms on your application server. For each authentication realm that you create, you must also create a corresponding directory configuration in Content Platform Engine so that the users and groups in the authentication realm can be authorized.

About this task

Content Platform Engine requires that all directory services be accessible at runtime. If one becomes inaccessible, Content Platform Engine will not function correctly, even though other directory services are still running. For example, if a system is configured for dc1.com and dc2.com, and dc1.com becomes unavailable, then all users, including the users in dc2.com, will be unable to access FileNet P8. It is therefore a best practice to configure LDAP failover for each directory service.
