1.2. Console Configuration

Under Configuration > Console you can customize how the OpenAM console appears, and what character sets are used.

Administration

Administration includes both global and realm attributes.

ssoadm service name: iPlanetAMAdminConsoleService

Federation Management

Clear Enabled to disable federation functionality in OpenAM.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-admin-console-liberty-enabled

Maximum Results Returned from Search

Use this attribute to restrict the maximum number of results found in a search, such as a search for user profiles. Increasing the value can negatively impact performance. On the other hand, the default maximum of 100 can explain why administrators unaware of this setting can be surprised not to see all the users they expect in search results.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-admin-console-search-limit

Timeout for Search

Timeout in seconds for a console search. OpenAM returns an error if the search is not completed by the timeout.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-admin-console-search-timeout

Search Return Attribute

List of LDAP attribute types to return in search results. OpenAM sorts users by the first attribute you specify. Use attributes that are actually present in user profiles.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-admin-console-user-return-attribute

Maximum Items Displayed per Page

OpenAM shows a maximum of this many items in a console page before separating the page into multiple screens.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-admin-console-paging-size

Prompt user for old password

If enabled, when the user edits her password in the user view, then OpenAM prompts her for the old password.

ssoadm attribute: iplanet-am-admin-console-password-reset-enabled

Globalization Settings

Globalization settings affect character sets and common name formats. See Localization for a list of supported locales.

ssoadm service name: iPlanetG11NSettings

Charsets Supported by Each Locale

This table lets you configure the order of supported character sets used for each supported locale. Change the settings only if the defaults are not appropriate.

ssoadm attribute: sun-identity-g11n-settings-locale-charset-mapping

ssoadm attribute: sun-identity-g11n-settings-charset-alias-mapping
