Delete the base entry on AIX

If you made changes to LDAP user registry and no longer require a base entry that you created, you can delete it.

In single server environments, you do not have to start or stop the WebSphere_Portal and server1 servers to complete the following steps. In clustered environments, stop all application servers on system, including WebSphere_Portal, then start the nodeagent and dmgr servers before you begin any of the following steps.

To delete the base entry:

  1. To delete the base entry from a realm before deleting the base entry:

    1. Edit WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine/properties/wkplc.properties

    2. For realmName, type the name of the realm that you want to query.

    3. Save changes to wkplc.properties.

    4. Run the ./ConfigEngine.sh wp-query-realm-baseentry -DWasPassword=foo task, from the WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine, to list the base entries for a specific realm.

    5. Edit WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine/properties/wkplc.properties

    6. Enter a value under the VMM realm configuration heading:

          realmName
          deleteBaseEntry

    7. Save changes to wkplc.properties.

    8. Run the ./ConfigEngine.sh wp-delete-realm-baseentry -DWasPassword=foo task, from the WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine, to delete a base entry from a realm configuration.

    9. Stop and restart all necessary servers to propagate changes.

  2. Edit WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine/properties/wkplc.properties

  3. Enter a value under the VMM repository base entry configuration heading to create additional base entries within the LDAP user registry to use when creating realms:

      id

      baseDN
      nameInRepository

  4. Save changes to wkplc.properties.

  5. Run the ./ConfigEngine.sh wp-delete-base-entry -DWasPassword=foo task, from the WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine, to delete a base entry from a repository.

  6. Stop and restart the appropriate servers to propagate the changes.

If you created clustered environment then performed the steps in this task, now run the update-jcr-admin task on the secondary node. See Enable LDAP security after cluster creation for instructions.
