WAS Version 7.0 distinguishes between the user identities for administrators who manage the environment and server identities for authenticating server to server communications. In most cases, server identities are automatically generated and are not stored in a repository.
However, if you are adding a previous version node to the latest version cell and the previous version node used a server identity and password, ensure that the server identity and password for the previous version are defined in the repository for this cell. Enter the server user identity and password on this panel.
Primary administrative user name
Name of a user with administrative privileges that is defined in your local operating system.
The user name is used to log on to the administrative console when administrative security is enabled..
In WAS, v6.1 and above, a single user identity is required for both administrative access and internal process communication. When migrating to Version 6.1 and above, this identity is used as the server user identity. You need to specify another user for the administrative user identity.
Automatically generated server identity
Enable the application server to generate the server identity, which is recommended for environments that contain only v6.1 or later nodes. Automatically generated server identities are not stored in a user repository.
Default: Enabled
Server identity stored in the repository
User identity in the repository used for internal process communication. Cells that contain v6.1 or later nodes require a server user identity that is defined in the active user repository.
Default: Enabled
Server user ID or administrative user on a Version 6.0.x node
User ID used to run the application server for security purposes.
Password
Password that corresponds to the server ID.
