Role-based policy framework properties
Although it is very unlikely that you will need to change these properties, use this file to reference supported properties within the role-based policy framework.
The role-based policy framework parameters are located in the Java Authorization Contract for Containers (JACC) configuration file and in the authorization configuration file. They are set at the time of JACC provider configuration and authorization server configuration. The role-based policy framework settings for the authorization table and the JACC provider can be modified separately for each WAS instance. The amwas.node_server.authztable.properties configuration file is generated from the authorization table. The amwas.node_name_server_name.amjacc.properties configuration file is generated from the JACC provider. Both files are stored in the profile_root/etc/tam directory. It is very unlikely that you might need to change these properties. The properties are described here for reference:
Supported properties include:
- com.tivoli.pd.as.rbpf.AMAction=i
- This property is used to signify that a user is granted access to a role. This value is added to a Tivoli Access Manager access control list (ACL) and places invoke access on roles for users and groups.
- com.tivoli.pd.as.rbpf.AMActionGroup=WebAppServer
- This property sets the Tivoli Access Manager action group that serves as a container for the action that is specified by the com.tivoli.pd.as.rbpf.AMAction property. The permission set in the com.tivoli.pd.as.rbpf.AMAction property goes into this action group.
- com.tivoli.pd.as.rbpf.PosRoot=WebAppServer
- This property is used to determine where roles are stored in the protected object space.
- com.tivoli.pd.as.rbpf.ProductId=deployedResources
- This property specifies the location under the root location that is specified in the posroot property to separate other products in the protected object space. Embedded Tivoli Access Manager objects are found in the /WebAppServer/deployedResources directory. The default value is deployedResources.
- com.tivoli.pd.as.rbpf.ResourceContainerName=Resources
- This property specifies the Tivoli Access Manager object space container name for the protected resources. The default location is the /WebAppServer/deployedResources/Resources directory.
- com.tivoli.pd.as.rbpf.RoleContainerName=Roles
- This property specifies the Tivoli Access Manager protected object space container name for the security roles. The default location is the /WebAppServer/deployedResources/Roles directory.
The previous settings cannot be changed after configuration. Make changes in the template properties file before any configuration actions are performed. Properties that are changed after configuration will cause access decisions to fail.
