Removing user repositories

Remove any user repositories that you no longer need from the realm. For example, if want to add an LDAP directory to the realm, first remove any ObjectServers from the realm. If you do not remove the ObjectServers, users cannot log in after you add the LDAP directory.

Procedure

  1. Launch the administrative console and click Security > Global security.
  2. From the Available realms definition list, select Federated repositories and click Configure.
  3. In the Federated window, select the required entry from Repositories in the realm: and click Remove.
  4. Click OK and then click Save directly to master configuration, which is at the top of the page.
  5. Click Manage Repositories, which is under Related items.
  6. From the table, select the row that represents the repository that you want to remove, and click Delete.
    For example, an ObjectServer is defined as NetcoolObjectServer.
  7. Click OK and then click Save directly to master configuration, which is at the top of the page.
  8. Restart the server.

What to do next

If you are replacing an ObjectServer with an LDAP directory:
  • In the JazzSM_WAS_Profile/config/cells/JazzSMNode01Cell/wim/wimconfig.xml file, check that the ObjectServer was removed, for example by searching for the fragment com.ibm.tivoli.tip.vmm4ncos.ObjectServerAdapter. If the ObjectServer was removed, this fragment is no longer in the file.
  • Add the LDAP directory to the realm.
  • Define the LDAP directory, or another user registry as the write-repository to which new users or groups are saved. After you remove a repository, new users and groups are saved to the default file-based repository.
