Use this security wizard page to complete the basic requirements
to connect the application server to a federated repository.
To view this security wizard page, complete the following steps
- Click Security > Global security > Security configuration wizard.
- Select your protection settings and click Next.
- Select the Federated repositories option and click Next.
You can modify your federated repository configuration by completing the
following steps:
- Click Security > Global security.
- Under User account repository, select Federated repository and click Configure.
Note: This wizard is used for the initial configuration of a built-in, file-based
repository. The user name and password do not have to be in the federated
repository because they will be created. If you have previously configured
federated repositories, do not use the Security configuration wizard to modify
your configuration. Instead, modify your configuration using the Federated
repositories selection under User account repository on the Global security
panel.
Specifies the name
of the user with administrative privileges that is defined in the
repository, for example, adminUser.
The user name is used to log on to the administrative console when
administrative security is enabled. Version 6.1 requires an administrative
user that is distinct from the server user identity so that administrative
actions can be audited.
Attention: In WebSphere® Application
Server, Versions 5.x and 6.0.x, a single user identity is required
for both administrative access and internal process communication.
When migrating to Version 6.1, this identity is used as the server
user identity. You need to specify another user for the administrative
user identity.
