Creating a User Management Service server instance

Create a IBM® WebSphere® Application Server Liberty server for the User Management Service from the command line.
Perform the following actions:
  1. Create a Liberty server for the User Management Service:
    1. Change to the bin subdirectory of your Liberty installation directory, for example: C:\ums\wlp\bin.
    2. To create a server that is based on the server template for the ibmUserManagement product extension, run the following command:
      server create server_name --template=ibmUserManagement:ibmUserManagement
      Where server_name is the name you want to give your server. If you do not specify a server name, defaultServer is used.
  2. After the server is created, verify that an additional directory exists that is named after the server and contains the configuration for that server. For example, C:\ums\wlp\usr\servers\serverName.
  3. Create the SSL keystore for the User Management Service. Run the following command with your custom password in the bin subdirectory of your Liberty installation directory:
    securityUtility createSSLCertificate --server=server_name  --password=password
    Where server_name is the name of your server and password is the password that you want to use for the keystore. The command prints out the server.xml file entry, for example:
    <keyStore id="defaultKeyStore" password="{xor}Lz7sLChaLTs=" />
    You do not need to update server.xml, but you need to remember the password (either in clear text or as encrypted text "{xor}....") for later configuration steps.
