Integrating with LDAP

To leverage your LDAP user repository in Cloud APM, you must integrate your LDAP server with your Cloud APM server.

Cloud APM uses the WebSphere® Application Server Liberty profile basic registry as the default method for user authentication. Alternatively, you can use an LDAP registry for user authentication.

When you integrate Cloud APM with LDAP, you can use SSL or non-SSL. Complete the following steps to integrate Cloud APM with LDAP:

Create a copy of the following files:
- install_dir/wlp/usr/shared/config/basicRegistry.xml
- install_dir/wlp/usr/shared/config/commonRegistry.xml
- install_dir/wlp/usr/servers/server1/cscs/conf/cscsRoleAdmin.conf
- install_dir/wlp/usr/shared/config/oauthVariables-onprem.xml
You might need to restore these files later if you are troubleshooting the configuration, see Troubleshooting changing the primary role administrator, and Troubleshooting the LDAP configuration.
(SSL only) Add the LDAP server certificate.
Updating the LDAP registry file.
Updating the primary role administrator.
