Associating a Profile with a DomainDepending on whether your application is Java, C++, or both, you may have to setdifferent properties with different types of values. See Chapter 10, “Security Propertiesfor C++” and Chapter 9, “Security Properties for Java” for all the properties you can setin this file.Once all the properties have been set, the security.properties file is placed in theprofile folder.Associating a Profile with a DomainUsing a Vault for a DomainSecurity profiles are associated with the various domains on your system by settingproperties. Once these properties are set, VisiSecure uses the settings found in theassociated security profiles to secure your domains. Each domain on your system hasan orb.properties file associated with it. This file is located in:/var/domains//adm/properties/orb.propertiesTo associate a profile and its settings with a domain:1 Open the domain's orb.properties file.2 Set the following property vbroker.security.profile to the name of the profile whosesettings you want to use for the domain. For example:vbroker.security.profile=defaultVisiSecure will now refer to the settings for the chosen security profile when performingsecurity operations for that domain.If you are using a vault to store system identities, you associate it with a domain so thatit can be used. You do this by setting the domain's vbroker.security.vault property inthe domain's orb.properties file. Simply set the property to the location of the domain'svault. For example:vbroker.security.vault=c:/BDP/var/domains/base/adm/security/MyVaultSimilar to the vault are other properties which only belong to the orb.properties file.These include secure listener ports, thread monitoring, and so forth. As a general rule,add only those properties to the profile that can be shared by multiple applications.Otherwise, use the appropriate process-specific ORB properties file to specify theproperty.Chapter 5: Configuring Security Profiles for Domains 63
