SRAP Installation

I am attempting to install and configure the SRAP gateway for an existing portal server instance. I have installed the gateway in a different zone but the the configuration for the gateway fails at installation.

I have several questions:

1. Does the Portal server instance need anything changed prior to the gateway install?

2. The documentation does not provide any sequenced list of steps that I can find. I did find the command line docs for psadmin which show creating the profiles etc.

3. The psconsole also has a tab for gateway profiles and creating new profiles but will not allow you to input any data.

Any suggestions would be greatly appreciated.

Below is the answer for the questions

1. Does the Portal server instance need anything changed prior to the gateway install?

-> Before attempting to install gateway. Make sure that below steps are done on portal machine

a. ./psadmin switch-sra-status -u amadmin -f <passwordfile> on

b. Modify enableSRAForPortal.xml file and run

./amadmin -u amadmin -w <ampassword> -t <enableSRAForPortal.xml>

2. The documentation does not provide any sequenced list of steps that I can find. I did find the command line docs for psadmin which show creating the profiles etc.

-> If Gateway is selected in the JES installer then all packages and configuration for gateway is already done. You need to do the steps that i mentioned above and just start the gateway.

3. The psconsole also has a tab for gateway profiles and creating new profiles but will not allow you to input any data.

-> New Gateway instance creation is a two way process. First is to create a gateway profile from psconsole as you mentioned and then from command line run

./psadmin create-sra-instance -u amadmin -f passwordfile -S <GWConfig-default.properties.template> -t gateway

GWConfig-default.properties.template will be present at /opt/SUNWportal/template/sra directory. These file has to be edited and token replaced before running above create-sra-instance command.
