  • Create an administrator account that can be used to log into the IBM Security Access Manager server.

  • ( Optional) If the administrator account does not have sufficient permissions to perform policy administration tasks, create a security master account (sec_master) in the IBM Security Access Manager server’s iv-admin group. This will be identified as the system password.

Targeting the IBM Security Access Manager server

For each IBM Security Access Manager server, add a target system in Bravura Security Fabric (Manage the system > Resources > Target systems):

      (key: port)

    • Connection over SSL Switch connection over SSL protocol. Default is "true".

      (key: ssl)

    • Validate the server's certificate with connecting determines whether to validate the server’s security certificate for SSL connection. Default is "true".

      (key: checkCert)

    • HTTP Network Proxy specifies a proxy URL to use for connecting.

      (key: proxy)

    • Enable on reset enables an account after a password reset.
