Create a Directory for the SUN ONE User Store

A directory provides information about a user directory that the Enterprise Management Server manages. You configure the SUN ONE directory settings after you install the Enterprise Management Server.

Follow these steps:

1. Navigate to the following directory, where JBOSS_HOME indicates the directory where you installed JBoss:

   JBOSS_HOME/server/default/deploy/IdentityMinder.ear/user_console.war/META-INF/
   

2. Locate the SAM_iPlanet_directory.xml file and copy the file to a temporary directory.
3. Open the CA Identity Minder Management Console as follows:

   http://enterprise_host:port/idmmanage
   

4. Select Directories, New.

   The new directory window opens.

5. Select Browse and locate the SAM_iPlanet_directory.xml file. Click Next.
6. Enter the following information:
   • Name—defines the directory logical name
   • Description—(optional) specifies a description for the directory
   • Object Connection Name—specifies the name of the user store
   • Host—defines the directory host name or IP address
   • Port—defines the directory port number

     Example:389

   • Search root—defines the organization search root. Directory search will start from the root level
   • User DN—defines a user account with privileges to log in to the directory

     Example: cn=Username, ou=Administration, ou=Corporate, o=Democorp, c=AU

   • Password—defines the user account password
   • Confirm password—enter the user account password to confirm the password
   • Secure connection—indicates that the connection to the directory is secured
7. Click Next and Finish.

   The new directory is created. You now need to create an environment.
