14.2.2 Discussions Server - Configuration

You can view, set, and remove Oracle WebCenter Discussions server system properties with the following WLST commands: ■ getDiscussionsServerProperty ■ setDiscussionsServerProperty ■ removeDiscussionsServerProperty For command syntax and examples, see the section, addDiscussionsServerAdmin in Oracle Fusion Middleware WebLogic Scripting Tool Command Reference. Additionally, the addDiscussionsServerAdmin command grants system administrator permissions on the discussions server to a user or a group. This command is useful when you connect the discussions server to a new identity store that does not contain any of the current administrators. For command syntax and examples, see the section, addDiscussionsServerAdmin in Oracle Fusion Middleware WebLogic Scripting Tool Command Reference. The syncDiscussionServerPermissions command WebCenter Spaces only synchronizes discussion server permissions for subspaces that inherit security from their parent. For command syntax and examples, see the section, syncDiscussionsServerPermissions in Oracle Fusion Middleware WebLogic Scripting Tool Command Reference.

14.2.3 Discussions Server - Security Considerations

■ WS-Security establishes a trust relationship between your WebCenter application and Oracle WebCenter Discussions so that your WebCenter application can pass the user identity information to the server without knowing the users credentials. Configure OWSM WS-Security for WebCenter Discussions, depending on your topology, following either Section 32.1.3, Configuring the Discussions Server for a Simple Topology, Section 32.2.3, Configuring the Discussions Server for a Typical Note: To execute discussion server WLST commands, such as syncDiscussionServerPermissions, the user used to connect to the Admin Server must also have administrative privileges on the discussion server.
