VMMSync: Adding the memberOf property to the entity type PersonAccount in Linux

Troubleshooting


Problem

The syntax for adding a property to an entity type is different in Linux than in Windows.

Symptom

WebSphere will write to SystemOut the message CWWIM4516E The 'memberOf' property is not defined for the '[PersonAccount]' entity type.

Diagnosing The Problem

Resolving The Problem

The locations are the default values for a IBM® Maximo® Asset Management or IBM® Control Desk® Middleware installation on Linux.
  1. Log in as root or an administrator, or use sudo
  2. Enter the WebSphere administrative command line interface (wsadmin)
  • Start a terminal session. Go to /IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin
  • wsadmin.sh -lang jython username=<username> password=<password>
  1. Add the memberOf property to the entity type PersonAccount
  • wsadmin>AdminTask.addIdMgrPropertyToEntityTypes ('[-name memberOf -dataType string -entityTypeNames PersonAccount]')
  • This command completes with the message
  • CWWIM0523I  The new property 'memberOf' was successfully added to the entity type '[PersonAccount]'.
  1. Save the configuration
  • wsadmin>AdminConfig.save()
  • This command returns two single quotation marks ('')
  1. Stop Node Agent
  • Go to /IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/ctgAppSrv01/bin
  • stopNode.sh username=<username> password=<password>
  1. Restart Deployment Manager
  • Go to /IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/ctgDmgr01/bin
  • stopManager.sh username=<username> password=<password>
  • When that completes
  • startManager.sh
  1. Synchronize nodes
  • Go to /IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/ctgAppSrv01/bin/
