Gather Directory Server Information
Configuring an ADAM directory server as a policy store requires specific directory server information.
Gather the following information before configuring the policy store. You can use the Policy Store Worksheets to record your values.
Note: Policy and data store worksheets are provided to help you gather and record information before configuring or upgrading a SOA Security Manager data store. You can print the applicable worksheet and use it to record required information before beginning.
- Host information —Determine the fully qualified host name or the IP Address of the directory server.
- Port information —Determine if directory server is using a non-standard port. The tools used to configure a policy store uses port 389 (non-SSL) and 636 (SSL) if port information is not provided.
- Administrative DN —Determine the full domain name, including the guid value, of the ADAM administrator.
Example: CN=user1,CN=People,CN=Configuration,CN,{guid}
- Administrative Password —Determine the password for the Administrative DN.
- Policy Store Root DN —Determine the existing root DN location of the application partition in the ADAM server where you want to put the policy store schema data under.
- (Optional) SSL client certificate —If the directory connection is made over SSL, determine the path of the directory where the SSL client certificate database file exists.
