IBM WebSphere V5.0 Security - CGISecurity

If you want to edit the security role mapping for an application, open theAdministrative Console and click Applications -> Enterprise Applications.Select the application, for example ITSOBank, to get to the application detailspage. Select the Map security roles to users/groups link, which will bring upthe same mapping page that you see during deployment.You can perform the security role mapping or you can change the actualmapping. After you are done, you have to restart only the enterprise application.The application will pick up the new mappings and will run with the new settings.Redeploying an applicationThis may occur if you have a deployed and working enterprise application andyou need to make some minor changes on the code or the application. It wouldbe the case in a test environment or when dealing with an application on astaging server. Redeploying the whole application every time you make a changeis time consuming and unnecessary.There is a fastpath for modifying and redeploying an application without losingthe deployment information. Here is how to do it:1. Start the Administrative Console.2. Select the enterprise application under Applications -> EnterpriseApplications, then click Export.3. Save the deployed application in a directory of your choice.4. You can either modify the application using the Application Assembly Tool, orimport it into WebSphere Studio and perform the modifications there.5. Once you are done with the modifications, redeploy the application in yourWebSphere Application Server. During deployment, you will not have toperform any new binding or mapping unless you have changed somethingrelated to mapping and binding, so just go to the last step, click Finish andyou are done.Chapter 3.
