		<description><![CDATA[TFIM 6.2 provides an OSGi (Open Services Gateway Initiative) extension point for custom plug-ins for STS modules.  
    In this tutorial, we will walk through the complete development process for creating a custom STS plug-in for Tivoli Federated Identity Manager (TFIM) 6.2. 
    Customers might develop their own STS plug-ins for a variety of reasons including advanced user mapping and attribute gathering capabilities, or to support validation or issuing of proprietary security token types. 
    This tutorial will use as a working example a simple mapping module which adds a configurable name/value parameter pair as an attribute to the TFIM Trust Service&apos;s STSUniversalUser.]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[Bulk attestation within Tivoli Identity Manager]]></title> 
		<description><![CDATA[As part of compliance requirements, organizations are required to perform attestation of a user&apos;s entitlements for access to systems. This process usually requires a responsible party (for example, the user&apos;s manager) to assert that the user continues to require access to a particular system. IBM Tivoli Identity Manager (ITIM) provides account attestation as part of its core functionality, and hence can implement complex attestation requirements. However, setting the attestation for a large number of target systems can be a chore. In addition, when a responsible party is asked to perform attestation for many users of a system as part of a continuous attestation cycle, the task becomes laborious. This tutorial gives the reader some methods for scaling attestation from a manageability perspective, using features available within ITIM 5.0.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The IBM Autonomic Integrated Development Environment (AIDE) facilitates a model-driven approach to touchpoint development, which is a useful, factory-style, wizard-assisted pattern for producing generic touchpoints. However, at some point in the AIDE-driven workflow, the touchpoint must be made specific to a given application. You can do this either at the model design stage or manually through hard-coding. In this tutorial -- the seventh in the series -- discover techniques for creating both generic and specific touchpoints, and learn how to produce touchpoints that have the right mixture for a given management application.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[This tutorial is written for developers who need to gather disparate information from various managed resources to allow policy management to dictate those managed resources&apos; behaviors. Using the Policy Management for Autonomic Computing (PMAC) tool from alphaWorks you can create and enforce policies dictating the behaviors of managed resources. Part of PMAC is the Managed Element Descriptor (MED) API, which lets you programmatically gather this disparate information from the XML and WSDL documents. After you create the XML- or WSDL-managed resource documents, the MED correlates this information and produces an organized, logical view of the managed resource data. This view gives you a consistent representation of the managed resource properties and operations that can be used in resource property discovery and validation, among other things.]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[The world of autonomic computing is a global world. Developers need to be ever conscious of global issues in designing user interfaces and in making their applications available to the international marketplace. The IBM Integrated Solutions Console (ISC) enables the common systems administration feature of autonomic computing. Internationalizing your portlet application opens up common systems administration to administrators not just around the country, but around the world. This tutorial shows how to globalize a portlet for the Integrated Solutions Console. This tutorial is written for software developers who need to globalize their portlet application. Basic knowledge of Java programming, JavaServer pages files, portlet development, and the Integrated Solutions Console will help you complete the tasks described.]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[Autonomic Computing Expression Language]]></title> 
		<description><![CDATA[This tutorial shows how to use the Autonomic Computing Expression Language (ACEL), an XML-based expression language, to create an expression, parse it, prepare input for it, and evaluate it. ACEL was originally developed as a part of the Autonomic Computing Policy Language to describe conditions when a policy should be applied to a managed system. To learn more about how policies can be used to manage an IT system, download IBM Policy Management for Autonomic Computing (PMAC) from alphaWorks. However, ACEL is applicable in many other contexts such as specifying service level agreements, pricing, scheduling, and provisioning of services. In general, ACEL can be used to specify various types of expressions (numeric expression, Boolean expression, string expression, and so on) in XML documents.]]></description>

		<title><![CDATA[Create GLA components using Release 2 of the Autonomic Computing Toolkit]]></title> 
		<description><![CDATA[The Generic Log Adapter (GLA) lets you to process log files and transform their contents into events that follow the Common Base Event (CBE) format. Internally, the GLA consists of a chain of components that have different roles in the transformation process. The last member in the chain is the outputter, the component that externalizes a CBE instance generated by the GLA. Typical destinations for CBE instances include the console, a file, or an autonomic computing log agent, and the GLA ships with outputters for each of these destinations. However, your specific needs might not be addressed by the standard GLA outputters. This tutorial shows you how to write custom outputters. By following the same general pattern you can write any type of GLA component.]]></description>
