Resource Mapping

The Resource field in a SiteMinder rule specifies the resource that is the subject of the rule. The complete resource specification (shown by the Effective Resource field on the Rule dialog) is a concatenation of the values of the Resource Filter of the parent realm (or realms in a nested realm environment) and the Resource field of the rule itself. Resources must be defined using special mapping conventions.

This section describes the SiteMinder resource mapping for WebSphere resources. This mapping provides a means of representing WebSphere resources in the realms and rules that make up your authorization policies.
