(iseries)Verify Enterprise Identity Mapping identity token connection factory prerequisite applications
Use the following procedure to verify that the necessary prerequisites have been installed before using the Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM) identity token connection factory.
Before we can use the EIM identity token connection factory, you must have the required cumulative program temporary fix (PTF) applied to the server. We might also need to apply PTFs to run the sample application.
To verify that we have the necessary prerequisites installed to use the EIM identity token connection factory:
- Verify that OS/400 - Extended Base Directory Support (5761-SS1 or 5770-SS1 option 3) is installed on the IBM i system that hosts WebSphere Application Server. This product is a requirement for the EIM Identity Token Connection Factory.
- Verify that the latest operating system PTFs are applied to the IBM i system for the EIM Identity Token Connection Factory. For information about the latest operating system PTFs, search the Technotes for "EIM Identity Token Connection Factory" on the WAS support page at: http://www.ibm.com/mysupport/s/topic/0TO500000001DQQGA2/WebSphere-Application-Server.
- Install the required PTFs for the sample application.
To run the sample application, verify that the latest IBM Toolbox for Java service packs and the required operating system PTFs are installed on all of the iSeries servers. For information on obtaining the latest service packs and required operating system PTFs, see Toolbox for Java and JTOpen Service Packs.
Results
After verifying that we have the necessary prerequisite applications installed, we can configure EIM for use with the identity token connection factory.
What to do next
Configure EIM. See Configure Enterprise Identity Mapping.
