About this task
Additions and changes to console users and groups are not
automatically added to the Tivoli® Access Manager object
space after the Java Authorization Contract for
Containers (JACC) provider for Tivoli Access
Manager is configured. Changes to console users and groups are saved
in the
admin-authz.xml file and this file must be migrated
before any changes take effect. The JACC provider for Tivoli Access
Manager includes the
migrateEAR migration utility for incorporating
console user and group changes into the Tivoli Access
Manager object space.
Note: The migrateEAR utility is used
to migrate the changes made to console users and groups after the
JACC provider for Tivoli Access Manager is configured.
The utility does not need to run for changes and additions to console
users and groups made prior to the configuration of the JACC provider
for Tivoli Access Manager because the changes
made to the admin-authz.xml and naming-authz.xml files
are automatically migrated at configuration time. Furthermore, the
migration tool does not need to run before deploying standard Java Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) applications; Java EE
application policy deployment is also performed automatically.
For
example, if you wanted to migrate the admin-authz.xml file,
perform the following steps:
