Configure SSO and SSL for widgets on WebSphere Portal

If you want your product widgets to work in WebSphere Portal, you must set up single sign-on (SSO) between WebSphere Portal and IBM BPM, and you must set up the SSL certificates so that they are exchanged between the WebSphere Portal and IBM BPM.

You must configure SSO between the servers for WebSphere Portal and your product that includes Business Space widgets. In addition, establish SSL between WebSphere Portal and your product that includes Business Space widgets. This requires that the SSL signer certificates are exchanged between the servers.

For the servers for both WebSphere Portal and your product, use the same user name and password to log on to the administrative console.

If you have separate cells configured, make sure that SSO considerations are taken into account (including that LTPA keys are in sync, shared user names/realm names are in sync, and certificates are imported as appropriate). In some cases, with IBM BPM, there might be multiple repositories in the realm, which might result in a realm-mismatch error. See Manage the realm in a federated repository configuration in the WebSphere Application Server documentation.


Procedure

  1. Set up SSO between WebSphere Portal and your product that includes Business Space widgets.

    1. Log on to the administrative console of the dmgr for your product that includes Business Space widgets.
    2. Follow the steps in Import and export keys in the WebSphere Application Server information center.
  2. Set up the SSL certificates so that they are exchanged between the servers of WebSphere Portal server and your product that includes Business Space widgets.

    Verify that the signers are configured in the appropriate truststores for the WebSphere Portal server and your product server. See Secure communications using Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) in the WebSphere Application Server information center.
