Adding an application registry definition

To create an application registry definition, you must be connected to the Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM) domain in which you want to work and you must have EIM administrator access control.

To add an application registry definition to an EIM domain, complete these steps:

  1. From IBM® Navigator for i, expand Security > Enterprise Identity Mapping (EIM).
  2. Click Domain Management.
    • If you are not currently connected to the EIM domain controller, a Connect to EIM Domain Controller dialog box is displayed. Enter the connection information to use for the connection to the EIM domain controller. Click OK
  3. Right-click the EIM domain in which you want to work and select Open.
  4. Right-click User Registries, select Open.
  5. Click the Actions menu and select Add Registry > Application.
  6. In the Add Application Registry dialog box, provide information about the application registry definition, as follows:
    1. A name for the application registry definition.
    2. The name of the system registry definition of which the application user registry that you are defining is a subset. The system registry definition that you specify must already exist in EIM, otherwise creation of the application registry definition fails.
    3. A registry definition type.
    4. A description of the application registry definition.
    5. One or more aliases for the application registry definition, if necessary.
  7. Click OK to save the information and add the registry definition to the EIM domain.
