Configure JBOSS or Tomcat to Work with Federation Web Services

To use a JBoss or Tomcat Application Server in a SOA Security Manager federated environment, deploy the FWS application on the application server.

The following illustration shows the deployment with JBOSS or Tomcat. On Systems 1 and 4, the Web Agent is installed with the JBOSS or Tomcat Connector for proxy support. SSL is enabled between the proxy and the application server. On Systems 2 and 5, FWS is deployed with the application server by way of the Web Agent Option Pack.

Federation Web Services Deployment for JBOSS or Tomcat

The process for deploying FWS is as follows:

  1. Create an SmHost.conf file.
  2. Create a WebAgent.conf file.
  3. Modify the AffWebServices properties file.
  4. Deploy the FWS WAR file in the application server.
  5. Modify the Tomcat catalina.properties file (Tomcat 6.0.18 and higher)

The following sections detail each step in the process.
