WAS v8.5 > Reference > Commands (wsadmin scripting)STSManagement command group for AdminTask
We can use the Jython or Jacl scripting languages to configure security with wsadmin. The commands and parameters in the STSManagement group can be used to manage and query trust service token provider configurations and endpoint configurations.
The STSManagement command group contains commands that allow us to configure existing token providers, assign token providers to endpoints, and modify general trust service configuration data. The commands in this group that perform configuration changes require that you execute the save command to commit the changes. No configuration changes are made if an exception is created when executing a command.
Use the following commands to modify and query token provider configurations:
- createSTSTokenTypeConfiguration
- deleteSTSTokenTypeConfigurationCustomProperties
- listSTSConfiguredTokenTypes
- querySTSDefaultTokenType
- querySTSTokenTypeConfigurationDefaultProperties
- querySTSTokenTypeConfigurationCustomProperties
- setSTSDefaultTokenType
- updateSTSTokenTypeConfiguration
- removeSTSTokenTypeConfiguration
Use the following commands to assign, unassign, and query endpoint configurations:
- assignSTSEndpointTokenType
- listSTSAssignedEndpoints
- listSTSEndpointTokenTypes
- unassignSTSEndpointTokenType
- updateSTSEndpointTokenType
Use the following commands to add, edit, delete, and list properties of the trust service:
To force the trust service to reload your modified configuration without restarting the application server:
createSTSTokenTypeConfiguration
The createSTSTokenTypeConfiguration command is used to create a token provider configuration.
Target object
Specify the LocalName object, which is used as an identifier for the various configurations. The value for the LocalName object must be unique.
Required parameters
- -URI
- The URI of the token provider. This value must be unique across all configuration token type URIs. (String, required)
- -HandlerFactory
- Provide the fully qualified class name of an implementation of the org.eclipse.higgins.sts.IObjectFactory interface. (String, required)
Optional parameters
- -lifetimeMinutes
- Maximum lifetime to assign to an issued token provider. Default is 120 minutes. (Integer, optional)
- -distributedCache
- Whether to enable or disable distributed cache. Specify true to enable distributed cache capability. Default is false. If we specify this option, the security context token provider generates a warning and modifies the WS-Security distributed cache configuration. Do not specify a value for this parameter for custom tokens. (Boolean, optional)
