Delete the realm base entry on Linux

If you made changes to realm and no longer require the base entry that you created for the realm, 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 realm base entry:

If you delete a base entry from the default realm, then users belonging to that base entry will no longer be able to log in, even on other realms that still contain the base entry. Therefore, the default realm should contain all the base entries for all active realms.

  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 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.
