SecurityDomainCommands command group

We can use Jython to configure and administer security domains with wsadmin.sh. Use the commands and parameters in the SecurityDomainCommands group to create and manage security domains, assign servers and clusters to security domains as resources, and to query the security domain configuration.

To administer the security domain configuration:

• convertServerSecurityToSecurityDomain

• copySecurityDomain

• copySecurityDomainFromGlobalSecurity

• createSecurityDomain

• deleteSecurityDomain

• getSecurityDomainForResource

• listResourcesInSecurityDomain

• listSecurityDomains

• listSecurityDomainsForResources

• mapResourceToSecurityDomain

• modifySecurityDomain

• removeResourceFromSecurityDomain

convertServerSecurityToSecurityDomain

Start in WAS v7.0, the use of security domains can be used in place of server level security configurations. If a server level security configuration is currently being used then the convertServerSecurityToSecurityDomain command can be used to covert it to a security domain.

The command creates a security domain and adds any security settings that are specified in the server level security configuration to the newly-created security domain. The server resources are mapped to the security domain.

Target object None

Required parameters

-serverResource

The resource name of the server to be converted to a security domain. (String)

-securityDomain

The name of the security domain to be created and that will contain the settings from the server level security configuration. (String)

Optional parameters

-securityDomainDescription

Specifies a description for the new security domain. (String)

-deleteServer

Specify true to remove the server level security configuration and false to leave the server level security configuration. (String)

Batch example...

### Jython

wsadmin> AdminTask.convertServerSecurityToSecurityDomain ('[serverResource Cell=:Node=myNode:Server=server1
                                          -securityDomain secDomain1 -securityDomainDescription "Migrated from
                                           server security configuration"
                                          -deleteServer true ]'))

### Jacl

wsadmin> $AdminTask convertServerSecurityToSecurityDomain {-serverResource Cell=:Node=myNode:Server=server1
                                           -securityDomain secDomain1 -securityDomainDescription "Migrated from
                                            server security configuration"
                                           -deleteServer true  }

copySecurityDomain

The copySecurityDomain command creates a new security domain by copying an existing security domain. If the security configuration defines an active user registry, provide a realm name for the newly create security domain. If you do not specify a realm name, the system creates a realm name.

-securityDomainDescription

Specifies a description for the new security domain. (String)

-realmName

Name of the realm in the new security domain. The system creates a name for the realm if you do not specify a value for this parameter. (String)

Return value

The command returns the configuration ID of the new security domain.

Batch example...

• Jython string:

  AdminTask.copySecurityDomain('-securityDomainName copyOfDomain2 -copyFromSecurityDomainName Domain2')
  

• Use Jython list:

  AdminTask.copySecurityDomain('-securityDomainName', 'copyOfDomain2', '-copyFromSecurityDomainName', 'Domain2')

### Jython

AdminTask.copySecurityDomain('-interactive')

copySecurityDomainFromGlobalSecurity

The copySecurityDomainFromGlobalSecurity command creates a security domain by copying the global security configuration.
