Creating Any Other Required LDAP Connections to LDAP Directories
Create LDAP connections to additional LDAP directories that contain details of users who may need to log in to the BPM system using Openspace, Workspace, or a custom client application.
Note: You only need to do this if the LDAP directory that you specified when running the
Create TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM Server Wizard (in the
ActiveMatrix BPM: LDAP Configuration screen) does
not contain details of all users who may need to log in to the BPM system using Openspace, Workspace or a custom client application.
- Procedure
- Log in to ActiveMatrix Administrator.
- Create the necessary shared resources to define an LDAP connection to each required LDAP directory. These resources are:
- LDAP Connection resource template
- LDAP Connection resource instance
- Create the necessary shared resources to authenticate login attempts against users in that LDAP directory. These resources are:
- LDAP Authentication resource template
- LDAP Authentication resource instance
Note: These resources must have their scope set to the name of the BPM application that identifies this BPM system. (This is the name specified in the
AMX-BPM Application Name field of the
ActiveMatrix BPM: Configuration screen, in the
Create TIBCO ActiveMatrix BPM Server Wizard.)

What to do next
You can now use the Organization Browser (logging in as
tibco-admin) to create BPM resources (users) from the LDAP users available in each LDAP container. For more information, see:
