Global Security for WebSphere Local within RAD

The key to global security for the instance of WebSphere running within your Rational Application Developer product is to keep the server security and RAD’s understanding of the security synchronized. To do this, always set or disable security first using the administrative console.

With Websphere running within the IDE, go into the security area and set or disable the security parameters. Once you are done, kill the admin console window or tab within Eclipse (RAD). Then select the server and shut it down. Once it’s down, you can right click and edit the server security properties.

If RAD or the server get out of synch with each other, it’s very possible you will not be able to shut down the server properly within the IDE. Open a terminal window and I’ll show the windows version here:
