Modifying extended attributes from an ACL policy with pdadmin

We can modify extended attributes from an ACL policy in the domain only with the pdadmin utility.

Web Portal Manager does not support modifying attributes. To use Web Portal Manager, an administrator needs to delete the attribute and then create the attribute again.

Steps

  1. Log on to the domain as the domain administrator.
  2. Use the acl modify command with the set attribute option.

Example

For example, to modify a generic attribute named Dept_No and add a value of 445 and associate it with the ACL named Test-ACL:
pdadmin sec_master> acl modify Test-ACL set attribute Dept_No 445

See the IBM Security Verify Access for Web: Command Reference.
