Maximo Application Server Authentication

This document describes how to configure Maximo and the DataSplice plug-in to utilize LDAP integrated authentication.

In this case the application server (Web Logic or WebSphere) is responsible for authenticating users, typically against another backend system such as LDAP, before connections can be established with MAXIMO.

Installation Steps

  1. Identify the .jsp file for your version of MAXIMO (6 or 7)
  2. Copy <Instance Root>\Server\AppServerSecurity\token_mx7.jsp or <Instance Root>\Server\AppServerSecurity\token_mx6.jsp into the <Maximo Root>\applications\maximo\maximouiweb\webmodule\webclient\utility\ folder.
  3. Rebuild the MXES ear files, restart the MAXIMO server, and redeploy the MAXIMO application.
  4. Start the DataSplice server and connect with Administration client.
  5. Edit the options for the MAXIMO Integration plug-in and update the following settings:
    • MAXIMO User Name/Password - Specify an account that can authenticate with the Application Server.
    • Auth Token Provider - Specify the web address for the deployed token_mx7.jsp or token_mx6.jsp file. For instance: http://maxserver:7001/maximo/webclient/utility/token_mx7.jsp
  6. Save the settings and restart the DataSplice server. The Maximo Integration Plug-in should now initialize properly and you should be able to log in to DataSplice using the MAXIMO domain.
