Creating a Liberty cluster with Security considerations

In order for secure applications to work in a Liberty clustered environment all the members in the cluster must have the same LTPA keys.

About this task

The following information provides details on what must be done for secure applications to work in a Liberty clustered environment when you use IHS or the plug-in.

Procedure

Choose the LTPA key file from one of the cluster members and copy it to all of the other members in the cluster. The default LTPA key file is ${server.ouput.dir}/resources/security/ltpa.keys. Alternatively, a new LTPA key file can be created and stored at the default location and the LTPA key configuration can be customized. If the LTPA keys are not dynamically reloaded after the LTPA key file update, you must restart the cluster members or enable the dynamic reloading of the LTPA keys. For more information, see Configuring LTPA on the Liberty profile.
