    Credential

    The password for the domain. In WebLogic Server version 6.0, this attribute was the password of the system user. In WebLogic Server version 7.0, this attribute can be any string. For the two domains to interoperate, the string must be the same for both domains.

    When you set the value of this attribute, WebLogic Server does the following:

    1. Encrypts the value.

    2. Sets the value of the UserPasswordEncrypted attribute to the encrypted value.

    For more information, see:

           
    Privileges Read/Write

    Privileges Read/Write
    Typejava.lang.String

    NodeManagerPassword

    The password that the Administration Server uses to communicate with Node Manager when starting, stopping, or restarting Managed Servers.

    When you get the value of this attribute, WebLogic Server does the following:

    1. Retrieves the value of the NodeManagerPasswordEncrypted attribute.

    2. Decrypts the value and returns the unencrypted password as a String.

    When you set the value of this attribute, WebLogic Server does the following:

    1. Encrypts the value.

    2. Sets the value of the NodeManagerPasswordEncrypted attribute to the encrypted value.

    Using this attribute (NodeManagerPassword) is a potential security risk because the String object (which contains the unencrypted password) remains in the JVM's memory until garbage collection removes it and the memory is reallocated. Depending on how memory is allocated in the JVM, a significant amount of time could pass before this unencrypted data is removed from memory.

    Instead of using this attribute, you should use NodeManagerPasswordEncrypted.

    Available Since Release 9.0.0.0
    Privileges Read/Write
    Typejava.lang.String
    Encryptedtrue

    NodeManagerPasswordEncrypted

    The password that the Administration Server passes to a Node Manager when it instructs the Node Manager to start, stop, or restart Managed Servers.

    To set this attribute, use weblogic.management.EncryptionHelper.encrypt() to encrypt the value. Then set this attribute to the output of the encrypt() method.

    To compare a password that a user enters with the encrypted value of this attribute, go to the same WebLogic Server instance that you used to set and encrypt this attribute and use weblogic.management.EncryptionHelper.encrypt() to encrypt the user-supplied password. Then compare the encrypted values.

    Notes

    Optional information that you can include to describe this configuration.

    WebLogic Sever saves this note in the domain's configuration file (config.xml) as XML PCDATA. All left angle brackets (<) are converted to the XML entity &lt;. Carriage returns/line feeds are preserved.

    Note:

    If you create or edit a note from the Administration Console, the Administration Console does not preserve carriage returns/line feeds.

    PrincipalEqualsCaseInsensitive

    Specifies whether the WebLogic Server principal name is compared using a case insensitive match when the equals method for the principal object is performed.

    If this attribute is enabled, matches are case insensitive.

    Note: Note that principal comparison is not used by the WebLogic Security Service to determine access to protected resources. This attribute is intended for use with JAAS authorization, which may require case insensitive principal matching behavior.

           
    Privileges Read/Write
    Typeboolean

    PrincipalEqualsCompareDnAndGuid

    Specifies whether the GUID and DN data in a WebLogic Server principal object are used when the equals method of that object is invoked.

    If enabled, the GUID and DN data (if included among the attributes in a WebLogic Server principal object) and the principal name are compared when this method is invoked.

           
    Privileges Read/Write
    Typeboolean

    WebAppFilesCaseInsensitive

    This property defines the case sensitive URL-pattern matching behavior for security constraints, servlets, filters, virtual-hosts, etc. in the WebApp container and external security policies. When the value is set to "os", the pattern matching will be case- sensitive on all platforms except the Windows file system. Note that on non-Windows file systems, WebLogic doesn't enforce case sensitivity and relies on the file system for optimization. Therefore, if you have a Windows Samba mount from UNIX or Mac OS that has been installed in case-insensitive mode, there is a chance of security risk. In that case, please specify case-insensitive lookups by setting this attribute to true. Note that this property is used to preserve backward compatibility on Windows file systems. In prior releases, WebLogic was case- insensitive on Windows. Starting with 9.0 release the URL-pattern matching will be strictly enforced. During the upgrade of older domains the value of this parameter is explicitly set to "os" by the upgrade plug-in, in order to preserve backward compatibility.

    Operations

    This section describes the following operations:


    findDefaultRealm

    Finds the default security realm. Returns null if a default security realm is not defined.

    Deprecated. 9.0.0.0 Replaced by DefaultRealm

       
    Operation Name"findDefaultRealm"
    Parametersnull
    Signaturenull
    ReturnsRealmMBean

    findRealm

    Finds a realm by name (that is, by the display name of the realm). Returns null no realm with that name has been defined. Throws a configuration error if there are multiple matches.

    Deprecated. 9.0.0.0 Replaced by lookupRealm

       
    Operation Name"findRealm"
    ParametersObject [] {  realmDisplayName }

    where:

    • realmDisplayName is an object of type java.lang.String that specifies:

      A String containing the realm's display name.

    SignatureString [] { "java.lang.String" }
    ReturnsRealmMBean

    findRealms

    Returns all the realms in the domain.

    Deprecated. 9.0.0.0 Replaced by Realms

       
    Operation Name"findRealms"
    Parametersnull
    Signaturenull
    Returns class

    freezeCurrentValue

    If the specified attribute has not been set explicitly, and if the attribute has a default value, this operation forces the MBean to persist the default value.

    Unless you use this operation, the default value is not saved and is subject to change if you update to a newer release of WebLogic Server. Invoking this operation isolates this MBean from the effects of such changes.

    Note:

    To insure that you are freezing the default value, invoke the restoreDefaultValue operation before you invoke this.

    This operation has no effect if you invoke it on an attribute that does not provide a default value or on an attribute for which some other value has been set.

    Deprecated. 9.0.0.0

       
    Operation Name"freezeCurrentValue"
    ParametersObject [] {  attributeName }

    where:

    • attributeName is an object of type java.lang.String that specifies:

      attributeName

    SignatureString [] { "java.lang.String" }
    Returns void
    Exceptions
    • javax.management.AttributeNotFoundException
    • javax.management.MBeanException

    generateCredential

    Generates a new encrypted byte array which can be use when calling #setCredentialEncrypted

       
    Operation Name"generateCredential"
    Parametersnull
    Signaturenull
    Returns class

    isSet

    Returns true if the specified attribute has been set explicitly in this MBean instance.

       
    Operation Name"isSet"
    ParametersObject [] {  propertyName }

    where:

    • propertyName is an object of type java.lang.String that specifies:

      property to check

    SignatureString [] { "java.lang.String" }
    Returns boolean

    restoreDefaultValue

    If the specified attribute has a default value, this operation removes any value that has been set explicitly and causes the attribute to use the default value.

    Default values are subject to change if you update to a newer release of WebLogic Server. To prevent the value from changing if you update to a newer release, invoke the freezeCurrentValue operation.

    This operation has no effect if you invoke it on an attribute that does not provide a default value or on an attribute that is already using the default.

    Deprecated. 9.0.0.0

       
    Operation Name"restoreDefaultValue"
