Configure the appserver for interoperability

 

Overview

After the truststore file is ready, complete the following steps to configure the WebSphere Application Server.

1. Configure the enterprise beans that access WebSphere Application Server for z/OS. Before deploying the enterprise beans, configure the RunAs Identity. Because the Security Authentication Service (SAS) only supports WebSphere Application Servers to interoperate with WebSphere Application Server for z/OS, set the RunAs Identity to System Identity.

2. Enable security.

3. Enable outbound SAS authentication protocol.

4. Specify the truststore file in an Secure Sockets Layer (SSL) configuration alias and configure the WebSphere Application Server with that alias.

5. Set the Request timeout and Locate request timeout values to zero for the Object Request Broker (ORB) service.When the WebSphere Application Server z/OS appserver first starts, no server region is available for processing work. It is therefore recommended that you set these two properties to zero to prevent potential timeouts.

6. Specify a security property named com.ibm.CORBA.keyFileName for the absolute path of the login key file created earlier.

7. Restart the WebSphere Application Server.
