Delete the realm base entry on Windows

If you made changes to your realm and no longer require the base entry that created for the realm, we can delete it.

In a clustered environment, start the dmgr and nodeagent and verify they are able to synchronize.

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 wkplc.properties, located in...
   WP_PROFILE/ConfigEngine/properties

   
   

2. For realmName, set the name of the realm to query.

3. Save changes to wkplc.properties.

4. To list the base entries for a specific realm

   cd WP_PROFILE\ConfigEngine
   ConfigEngine.bat wp-query-realm-baseentry -DWasPassword=foo task

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

6. Set the following required parameters under the VMM realm configuration heading:
   • realmName
   • deleteBaseEntry

7. Save changes to wkplc.properties.

8. To delete a base entry from a realm configuration.
   
   cd WP_PROFILE\ConfigEngine
   ConfigEngine.bat wp-delete-realm-baseentry -DWasPassword=foo task

9. Stop and restart servers, dmgrs, and node agents.

If created the clustered environment, including the additional nodes, and then completed the steps in this task, run update-jcr-admin on the secondary nodes.
