Storage location

Function

The delete-jacc-provider subcommand enables administrators to delete JACC providers defined for a domain. JACC providers are defined as jacc-provider elements in the security-service element in the domain's domain.xml file. JACC providers can be created using the create-jacc-provider subcommand.

The default Java EE Server installation includes two JACC providers, named default and simple. These default providers should not be deleted.

The JACC provider used by Java EE Server for authorization is identified by the jacc-provider element of security-service in domain.xml. Therefore, if you delete the jacc-provider provider, make sure you change jacc-provider to the name of some other JACC provider that exists under security-service.

If you change the jacc-provider element to point to a different JACC provider, you must restart Java EE Server.

This subcommand is supported in remote mode only.
