Why and when to perform this task
Additions and changes to console users and groups are not automatically added to the Tivoli Access Manager object space once the Tivoli Access Manager Java Authorization Contract for Containers (JACC) provider is configured. Changes to console users and groups are saved in the admin-authz.xml file and this file will require migration before any changes take effect. The Tivoli Access Manger JACC provider includes the migration utility, migrateEAR, for incorporating console user and group changes into the Tivoli Access Manager object space.To migrate admin-authz.xml:
Steps for this task
migrateEAR -j “install_dir/profiles/profile_name/config/cells/cell_name/admin-authz.xml” -a sec_master -p password -w wsadmin -d o=ibm,c=us -c file:/”install_dir/java/jre/PdPerm.properties”
A status message is displayed when the migration completes. Output of the utility is logged to the file, pdwas_migrate.log, created on the directory where the utility is run. Check the log file after each migration. If the log file displays errors, check the last recorded transaction, correct the source of the error, and rerun the migration utility. If the migration is unsuccessful, verify that you supplied the correct values for the -c and -j options.
