The SHIRO Service Type is

  • deprecated with release 2.2.0
  • unsupported with release 2.3.0
  • removed with release 2.4.0


Explanation:

  • Service Type: SHIRO
    • Management of user accounts and passwords is performed with JOC Cockpit.
    • The assignment of roles to user accounts is performed with JOC Cockpit.
    • JOC Cockpit stores user accounts, hashed passwords and role assignments
      • in the JS7 - Database and
      • to the JETTY_BASE/resources/joc/shiro.ini.active file (for information purposes)
      • Users can create a copy of the shiro.ini.active file, add their modifications and submit changes by renaming the file to shiro.ini. With the next login of a user the shiro.ini file will be applied and its contents are added to the JS7 database. As a result of this operation the shiro.ini file is renamed to shiro.ini.active. A previously available shiro.ini.active file is renamed to shiro.ini.backup.

Identity Service Configuration

JOC Cockpit offers the Manage Identity Services page from the user menu of an administrative account for configuration of Identity Services:
