Description

rcxadm authctl is the command to operate the connection information of the directory server that retains user authentication information.

Only OS administrators can execute this command.

When using the following subcommands, stop the manager prior to command execution:

Subcommands

register

Registers directory server connection information. When executing this command, the directory server is not connected.
This command cannot be used when multiple sets of directory server connection information are registered.

unregister

Deletes the connection information of registered directory servers.
This command cannot be used when multiple sets of directory server connection information are registered.

show

The registered directory server connection information is displayed in the following format.

host1: Host name or IP address
host2: Host name or IP address
port: Port_number
base: Base DN
bind: Administrative_user_DN
method: Encryption_communication_method

When directory server connection information for only one server is registered, only one host name (or IP address) is displayed.

modify

Modifies the connection information of registered directory servers.
This command cannot be used when multiple sets of directory server connection information are registered.

diffcert

Compares the certificates registered with ServerView Operations Manager and the Resource Orchestrator manager, and when the following difference exists, that certificate is displayed using a different name.

  • Certificates that exist in the ServerView Operations Manager keystore, but not in the Resource Orchestrator manager's keystore

  • Certificates that exist in the ServerView Operations Manager keystore and the Resource Orchestrator manager's keystore, but have conflicting fingerprints

This command cannot be used for the following configurations:

  • ServerView Operations Manager has not been installed.

  • Internal authentication is used as the authentication method

Difference of the CA certificate (keystore) is displayed using alias in the following format:

svs_cms
ldaphost.fujitsu.com

refreshcert

Imports the certificate of ServerView Operations Manager corresponding to the specified alias into Resource Orchestrator.

Specify the alias displayed by the diffcert command.

This command cannot be used for the following configurations:

  • ServerView Operations Manager has not been installed.

  • Internal authentication is used as the authentication method

If a root CA certificate has been registered with ServerView Operations Manager, specify that root CA certificate.

To import the server certificate, specify the alias for the following certificate:

  • Server certificate of ServerView Operations Manager

  • Server certificate of the directory server to be used

    This is unnecessary when using the directory service provided with ServerView Operations Manager.

Note

The certificate is imported using the specified alias. The existing certificate is deleted in the following cases:

  • There is a certificate which has the same alias

  • There is a certificate which has the same content as the certificate to be imported

Point

When executing the command, create a copy of the keystore (truststore-cacerts) file for Resource Orchestrator in the following format. When a file with the same name already exists, it will be overwritten.

sync

Synchronizes the directory server connection settings of Resource Orchestrator with those of ServerView Operations Manager. When directory server configuration information is not already registered, it will be registered with Resource Orchestrator using the settings of ServerView Operations Manager.

This command cannot be used for the following configurations:

  • ServerView Operations Manager has not been installed.


Options

The following options can be specified when using the register and modify subcommands:

-port port (optional)

Specify the port number of the directory server. When omitted, the following port number is regarded as having been specified using the -method value.

-method {SSL|PLAIN} (optional)

Specify the communication encryption method for the directory server. Specify either one of the following:

  • When encrypted communication is enabled

    SSL

  • When encrypted communication is not enabled

    PLAIN

The following options can be specified when using the register subcommand:

-bind bind_dn

Specify administrative user name of the directory server in the DN format.

-passwd password

Specify the password for the administrative user name of the directory server.

-passwd_file password_file

Specify the password file for the administrative user name of the directory server. Enter the password file using the following format (remove the quotation marks).

"userdn,password"

Specify the following options when using the modify subcommand:

-host hostname

Specify the host name for the directory server using an FQDN or an IP address.

-ip ip_address (optional)

Specify the IP address of the directory server. This option is for compatibility. Use the -host option.

-base base_dn (optional)

Specify the search base of the directory server in DN format.

-bind bind_dn (optional)

Specify administrative user name of the directory server in the DN format.

-passwd password (optional)

-alias alias

Specify the alias of the certificate to import into the CA certificate of Resource Orchestrator.

When using blank spaces or symbols in the specified string, enclose the whole string in double quotes ( " ).

An alias which contains double quotes ( " ) as character elements cannot be specified for this command. Remove any double quotes (") included in the alias before executing this command.

Note

  • Enter a string of 1 or more characters for the administrative user name.

  • Enter a string no longer than 128 characters for the password.

  • When changing the configuration of the administrative user name and password, specify both files.
