Enabling user provisioning

When users are created in WebSphere Portal Express, they are not automatically imported into Tivoli Access Manager. Enabling automatic user provisioning to Tivoli Access Manager changes this behavior. Once this feature is enabled, users are automatically imported into Tivoli Access Manager whenever they are created in WebSphere Portal Express. When user provisioning to Tivoli Access Manager, anyone with access to the public URL can become an active user in Tivoli Access Manager as long as the self-registration feature remains enabled.

Note: There are two ways to create users in WebSphere Portal Express:

Perform the following steps to enable user provisioning within Tivoli Access Manager:

  1. Run the following task to enable user provisioning:

    Option Description
    Windows ConfigEngine.bat enable-tam-userprov -Dwp.ac.impl.PDAminPwd=password from the wp_profile\ConfigEngine directory
    Linux ./ConfigEngine.sh enable-tam-userprov -Dwp.ac.impl.PDAminPwd=password from the wp_profile/ConfigEngine directory
    i5/OS ConfigEngine.sh -profileName profile_root enable-tam-userprov -Dwp.ac.impl.PDAminPwd=password from the profiles/wp_profile/ConfigEngine directory, where profile_root is the name of the WebSphere Application Server profile where WebSphere Portal Express is installed.
  2. Perform the following steps to stop and restart the server1 and WebSphere_Portal servers:

    1. Open a command prompt and change to the following directory:
