Deploying and starting Jazz Authorization Server
After you complete the prerequisite tasks, deploy and start the Jazz Authorization Server.
Restriction: Jazz Authorization Server does
not support basic authentication. Authentication methods supported by Jazz Authenticated Server are
- Client Certificates, Form Based Authentication, Security Assertion Markup Language (SAML), and
OpenID Connect (OIDC).
Note: Jazz Authorization Server is bundled with the Apache Derby database, but setting up a cluster of Jazz Authorization Server only
supports enterprise databases such as Db2®, Oracle,
or SQL Server.
After you configure a user registry, create a self-signed security certificate and keystore configuration for the Jazz Authorization Server, and make any other customizations to the WebSphere Liberty profile, deploy and start the server.
- Customize Liberty server for SameSite.
- Run the start-jazz script in the root installation folder.
- Verify that the Jazz Authorization Server is running.
- Verify that the user registry is configured correctly.
You can also configure ELM applications to run as Windows services. See Running ELM applications as Windows services for more information.
