AIX cluster: Enable referrals for LDAP user registry in a clustered environment
Referrals redirect object requests from one LDAP server to another when objects do not exist or cannot be located in a particular directory tree. You should enable referrals if environment has more than one user registry existing on multiple servers or domains.
Complete the following steps to configure the portal to use LDAP referrals:
Run backupConfig.
- Use any text editor to open wkplc.properties in the following directory: WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine/properties.
- Specify values for the following parameters:
- Save and close wkplc.properties.
- Run the following task from the WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine to create an LDAP entity type:
UNIX™: ./ConfigEngine.sh wp-update-et-ldap -DWasPassword=foo
Windows™: ConfigEngine.bat wp-update-et-ldap -DWasPassword=foo
IBM i: ConfigEngine.sh wp-update-et-ldap -DWasPassword=foo
- Stop and restart the appropriate servers to propagate the changes.
