prepare-external-server

Description

Prepare Identity Proxy and a directory server for communication.

This tool performs several functions that update a directory server to be used as an external server by the Identity Proxy. If you use the create-initial-proxy-config tool to define and prepare directory server instances use of this tool is unnecessary.

Among other functions, this tool creates the proxy user account, sets the correct password, and configures the account with required privileges. If necessary you are prompted for manager credentials in order that the tool can perform any required modifications to the external server.

When using this tool, specify the LDAP connection options to establish a connection to the external server. Other options are used to specify information about the Identity Proxy which this tool uses to configure the external server.

If a secure connection will be used by Identity Proxy to communicate with the external server you can supply the path and password of the trust store to have this tool populate the Identity Proxy's trust store with the server certificate of the external server.
