8.3.4 Copying settings from the primary authentication server

When using a secondary authentication server, you must set it up with the same information set on the primary authentication server. After completing the setup for the primary authentication server, therefore, you must copy the settings from the primary authentication server to the secondary authentication server.

  1. On the primary authentication server, complete the settings for JP1 users and operating permissions.

    For details on how to set up JP1 users, see 8.3.2 Setting JP1 users. For details on how to set up user operation permissions, see 8.3.3 Setting JP1 user operating permissions.

  2. Start the secondary authentication server.

    Start the JP1/Base service to start the secondary authentication server. You can use the jbs_spmd_status command to verify that the secondary authentication server has started. The secondary authentication server is running if the information shown by the command contains jbssessionmgr.

  3. Copy the settings files from the primary authentication server, using FTP or some other method.

    Using FTP or some other method, copy the settings file from the primary authentication server to the secondary authentication server. Copy the following files: JP1_AccessLevel, JP1_Group, JP1_Passwd, and JP1_UserLevel.

    These files are located in the following directory:

    /etc/opt/jp1base/conf/user_acl/

    Copy the files to the same directory on the local host. For a logical host, the files are stored in the following directory:

    shared-directory-name/jp1base/conf/user_acl/
  4. Use the jbs_spmd_reload command to apply the settings.

    Execute the jbs_spmd_reload command to apply the contents of the copied settings files. The settings take effect when the command terminates normally.

For details on the commands, see 15. Commands.

Notes
  • Ensure that the same version of JP1/Base is running on the primary and secondary authentication servers.

  • If the secondary authentication server has not started, execute the following commands:

    cd /etc/opt/jp1base/conf

    cp -p jp1bs_spmd.conf.session.model jp1bs_spmd.conf

    Then, restart JP1/Base to start the authentication server.

  • The settings files are text files. When transferring the files between different platforms, be careful about the character set. If you transfer them by FTP, be sure to use the ASCII transfer mode.
