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.
- 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.
Procedure
- In the administrative console, click Users and Groups to
access users and groups panel.
- Click Manage Groups to test the basic functions of the custom
adapter with respect to custom adapters for federated repositories.
- Click Manage Users to test the basic functions of the custom
adapter with respect to custom adapters for federated repositories.
Results
After completing these steps, you will have ensured that the custom
adapter is being used properly.
