IBM HTTP Server and the Global Security Toolkit - Not quite Harry Potter

I have blogged about this before: -


but I finally have a much clearer idea of the problem, and the pukka solution.

When creating a self-signed  SSL certificate in IHS, via a command such as: -

/opt/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/gskcapicmd -cert -create -db /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/ssl/keystore.kdb -pw passw0rd -size 2048 -dn "cn=hostname.domain.co.uk,ou=nbsnet,dc=co,c=uk" -label "hostname.domain.co.uk" -default_cert yes

I'd end up with an exception: -

CTGSK3024W Invalid value for parameter "-dn" (cn=hostname.domain.co.uk,o=domain,o=co,c=uk).

Initially, I thought that the problem was with the format of the Distinguished Name, so I used an escape character in front of each comma: -

/opt/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/gskcapicmd -cert -create -db /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/ssl/keystore.kdb -pw passw0rd -size 2048 -dn "cn=hostname.domain.co.uk\,ou=nbsnet\,dc=co\,c=uk" -label "hostname.domain.co.uk" -default_cert yes

which worked OK .... or so I thought.

However, when I looked at the certificate in Firefox, I noted that the Issuer contained an invalid Common Name (CN) - it actually held the DN: -


I spent a wee while digging around, and found that, if I instead used ikeycmd : -

/opt/IBM/HTTPServer/java/jre/bin/ikeycmd -cert -create -db /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/ssl/keystore.kdb -pw passw0rd -size 2048 -dn "cn=hostname.domain.co.uk,o=domain,o=co,c=uk" -label "hostname.domain.co.uk" -default_cert yes


the certificate created with the correct Issuer.

Which is unusual.

I've experimented further, including: -

/opt/IBM/HTTPServer/bin/gskcapicmd -cert -create -db /opt/IBM/HTTPServer/ssl/keystore.kdb -pw passw0rd -size 2048 -dn "cn=hostname.domain.co.uk,dc=domain,dc=co,dc=uk" -label "hostname.domain.co.uk" -default_cert yes

In other words, I continued to experiment with the format of the DN.

According to this document: -


the crucial thing is to ensure that the DN is formatted to a certain X.500 standard: -

-dn <dist_name>

The X.500 distinguished name that uniquely identifies the certificate. The input must be a quoted string of the following format (only CN is required):

        CN=common name
        O=organization
        OU=organization unit
        L=location

        ST=state, province
        C=country
        DC=domain component
        EMAIL=email address

For Example: "CN=weblinux.Raleigh.ibm.com,O=ibm,OU=IBM HTTP Server,L=RTP,ST=NC,C=US"

Multiple OU values are now supported. Simply add additional OU key\value pairs to the specified distinguished name. If the OU value requires a comma (',') then you must escape it with '\\'

For Example: "CN=weblinux.Raleigh.ibm.com,O=ibm,OU=IBM HTTP Server,OU=GSKit\\, Gold Coast,L=RTP,ST=NC,C=US"

Therefore, via trial and error, I've found a syntax that works for my client, and also works with GSK rather than depending upon ikeycmd, as hosting a JRE on a web server is typically a bad idea.

CWTDS0021E: The user registry configuration was changed in a way that causes the access to the IBM BPM document store to fail for the technical user 'deAdmin'.

March 26, 2015, 12:56 pm
$

For other reasons, relating to incorrectly formatted SSL certificates within a WAS profile, I needed to recreate my IBM BPM 8.5.5 environment yesterday.

I did this by deleting the WAS profiles, which took care of the Deployment Environment, and had my DB2 SME drop the nine Messaging Engine tables from the Common/Shared DB ( CMNDB ).

I recreated the Deployment Environment using BPConfig, and all seemed well .....

Until a colleague tried to invoke a multi-stage BPD, which triggers events to be consumed by IBM Business Monitor.

Guess what ?

Yes, my Deployment Environment rebuild hadn't quite worked as purely as I thought.

In the WAS logs, we saw: -

com.ibm.bpm.embeddedecm.exception.UserRegistryConfigurationProblemException: com.ibm.bpm.embeddedecm.exception.UserRegistryConfigurationProblemException: CWTDS0021E: The user registry configuration was changed in a way that causes the access to the IBM BPM document store to fail for the technical user 'deAdmin'.

Explanation: The technical user defined in the BPM role type 'EmbeddedECMTechnicalUser' is not permitted to access the 'BPM' domain.

Action: Revert the recent user registry configuration changes and follow the instructions of the 'Administering the technical user for the IBM BPM document store' topic in the IBM BPM Information Center to ensure the technical user keeps access to the IBM BPM document store.

As per the message, I referenced: -


which made reference to a series of useful Jython commands, including: -

AdminTask.maintainDocumentStoreAuthorization('[-deName PSCell1De1 -list]')

 AdminTask.maintainDocumentStoreAuthorization('[-deName PSCell1De1 -add uid=deAdmin,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealm]')

 AdminTask.maintainDocumentStoreAuthorization('[-deName PSCell1De1 -add #AUTHENTICATED-USERS]')

 all of which failed with: -

WASX7015E: Exception running command: "AdminTask.maintainDocumentStoreAuthorization('[-deName PSCell1De1 -list]')"; exception information:

com.ibm.bpm.embeddedecm.exception.UserRegistryConfigurationProblemException: com.ibm.bpm.embeddedecm.exception.UserRegistryConfigurationProblemException: CWTDS0021E: The user registry configuration was changed in a way that causes the access to the IBM BPM document store to fail for the technical user 'deAdmin'.

Explanation: The technical user defined in the BPM role type 'EmbeddedECMTechnicalUser' is not permitted to access the 'BPM' domain.

Action: Revert the recent user registry configuration changes and follow the instructions of the 'Administering the technical user for the IBM BPM document store' topic in the IBM BPM Information Center to ensure the technical user keeps access to the IBM BPM document store.

At that point, I started to wonder if I should've had John clear down ALL of the DBs.

So I completely shut down the Deployment Environment and had him do just that. He had a nice scripted process to recreate them, so they were back in the game within ~10 minutes.

I then needed to bootstrap the AppCluster DB tables: -

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/bin/bootstrapProcessServerData.sh -clusterName AppCluster

and then start the Deployment Environment.

This time, the clever ECM Jython command worked: -

AdminTask.maintainDocumentStoreAuthorization('[-deName PSCell1De1 -list]')

returning: -

"Authorization on the domain for the IBM BPM document store\nCWTDS2034I: Access is granted to the IBM BPM document store domain 'uid=deAdmin,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealm' with access mask '459,267'.\nAuthorization on the object store for the IBM BPM document store\nCWTDS2035I: Access is granted to the IBM BPM document store object store 'uid=deAdmin,o=defaultWIMFileBasedRealm' with access mask '838,205,440'."

 which is nice.

This popped up in my Twitter feed earlier: -

Improve performance for IBM Operational Decision Manager, Part 1: Reduce rule execution time

IBM® Operational Decision Manager (ODM) offers a variety of options for optimal performance. Each organization's environment and needs are unique, so guidance about settings to increase performance and to streamline resource             management is essential. This tutorial provides a brief overview of the different IBM ODM modules, and how they interact with each other, and recommended settings for performance improvements that have been found to have the most impact on rule execution. This content is part of the IBM Business Process Management Journal.

I am guessing that there will be more coming from this author, on this precise topic, so please follow the article linked for the rest of the series .....

I've blogged about this once or twice before, including: -


but here's my most recent experience with Cognos BI 10 on Linux, in the context of IBM Business Monitor 8.5.6 ( aka BAM ).

I again hit my favourite exception: -

Installation of IBM Cognos Business Intelligence has failed.

but used a bit more methodology to find the solution.

From past experience, I knew that the problem was a missing Linux pre-requisite, but wanted to know precisely WHAT was missing.

This is what I did: -

Check the IBM Installation Manager logs after the failure

So, I believe, that IS it.

In conclusion, I needed to install three missing libraries, along with their pre- and co-requisites: -

yum install -y ld-linux.so.2
yum install -y libgcc_s.so.1
yum install -y libXm.so.4

which ties up with my expectations and experiences, given that Cognos BI makes use of X11, even when running in the context of WebSphere Application Server.

I will re-test the entire thing later, and report back IF needed.

IBM Operational Decision Manager V8.7.0.1 Fix Pack - More

I blogged about this a few days back: -


and have now had more time to play with the fix pack downloads etc.

Initially, I downloaded the fix packs for Decision Centre ( aka RTS ) and Decision Server ( aka RES ): -


I'm not using the Decision Server for Events component ( formerly WebSphere Business Events ) or the new Decision Server Insights capability.

This resulted in two rather sizeable files: -

-rw-r--r--. 1 db2user1 games 4.1G Apr  6 02:37 8.7.0-WS-ODM_DC-LIN_X86-FP001.zip
-rw-r--r--. 1 db2user1 games 3.4G Apr  6 01:53 8.7.0-WS-ODM_DSR-LIN_X86-FP001.zip

Having unpacked these two files: -

for i in /mnt/hgfs/Software/ODM87/Fixes/8.7.0-WS-ODM_DC-LIN_X86-FP001.zip; do unzip $i -d /mnt/hgfs/Software/Repo/ODM87/Fixes/DC/; done

I ended up with this: -

However, this wasn't precisely for what I was looking, as I merely waned the Profile Templates for WebSphere Application Server, whereas the two downloaded fix packs covered the ENTIRE ODM product, suitable for ALL runtimes, not just WAS.

I needed to redo my Fix Central query: -



This gave me 36 files, including: -


which gave me this: -

If you see this: -

SQL10003C  There are not enough system resources to process the request.  The request cannot be processed.

when trying to run commands against DB2 e.g. db2level, db2start, db2licm etc. then make one simple check :-)

hostname

ping `hostname`

It's important that db2nodes.cfg matches the hostname of the server, and that the hostname is resolvable.

I hit this issue having changed my OS hostname AFTER I created my DB2 instance :-)

hostName: hostName is not a properly formed host name.

I saw this exception earlier: -

hostName: hostName is not a properly formed host name.

when creating a WAS profile: -

/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/bin/manageprofiles.sh -create -templatePath /opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profileTemplates/management -profileName Dmgr01 -nodeName Dmgr -isDefault -enableAdminSecurity true -adminUserName wasadmin -adminPassword passw0rd

Initially I was stumped, as the command doesn't specify a hostname.

Then I thought about it …..

…. and looked at the hostname of my server: -

hostname

mta2015_1.uk.ibm.com

and remembered that, whilst instantiating a VM in the cloud earlier, I was told off for using a hostname containing an underscore character.

I changed the hostname to be more in keeping with my target - IBM ODM 8.7 i.e. to: -


and, quelle surprise, all is now well :-)

MQOPEN ended with reason code 2085 - WebSphere MQ and Clustered Queues

I hit this problem earlier today: -

/opt/ibm/mqm/usr/mqm/samp/bin/amqsput ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ ESB1.DEV1

Sample AMQSPUT0 start
target queue is ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ
MQOPEN ended with reason code 2085
unable to open queue for output
Sample AMQSPUT0 end

I could see the queue on the Queue Manager local to where I was running the command ( my ESB box, running IIB 9 and MQ 8 ).

However, when I looked more deeply: -

display queue(ESB*)

     1 : display queue(ESB*)

AMQ8409: Display Queue details.

   QUEUE(ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ)               TYPE(QLOCAL)

display queue(ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ)

     2 : display queue(ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ)

AMQ8409: Display Queue details.

   QUEUE(ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ)                   TYPE(QLOCAL)
   ACCTQ(QMGR)                             ALTDATE(2015-04-07)

   DEFPRESP(SYNC)                          DEFREADA(NO)
….
 
I could immediately see the problem ….

The cluster to which I was expecting the Queue to belong was called DEV1 and yet the CLUSTER() value above was set to UAT1.

I verified this: -

which confirmed that the cluster name should indeed be DEV1.

I changed the Queue definition: -
 
alter qlocal(ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ) cluster(DEV1)

and re-tested: -

/opt/ibm/mqm/usr/mqm/samp/bin/amqsput ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ ESB1.DEV1

it responded as I'd expected: -

Sample AMQSPUT0 start
target queue is ESB.TO.BPM.CLQ
Hello BPM from ESB
Sample AMQSPUT0 end

which is nice.

Thanks to this: -


for making me think about the Cluster name within the Queue definition: -

Slide 44 says: -

In order to make a queue visible to the other members of the cluster, it is necessary to ALTER the queue and specify the cluster name:

ALTER QLOCAL(CQ1) CLUSTER('CLUSTER1')

You do a remote PUT into a clustered queue. However, you cannot do a remote GET from a clustered queue.

The GET can ONLY be done from the local queue.

Learn the workings of Git, not just the commands

When you come from using a classical source code repository like Concurrent Versions System (CVS) or Subversion (SVN), it can be difficult to understand the flexibility and the possibilities of Git. This article tries to explain the workings of Git and how it all fits together, so you don't have to try to remember the commands, but instead just know what to do because you understand it well.

IBM Business Monitor 8.5.6 on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 - Forked

Again, THIS is why I blog.

One of my colleagues saw issues with IBM Business Monitor 8.5.6 on a Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 VM, including core dumps and OutOfMemory exceptions.

Given that I'd created the base VM, and also installed all of the IBM middleware components ( this is for an enablement event that we're co-delivering next week ), I wanted to get to the bottom of it.

I took his build notes, and went through the same process.

And I saw much the same thing, specifically: -

[4/14/15 20:06:37:172 BST] 00000001 ContainerHelp E   WSVR0102E: An error occurred stopping, com.ibm.ws.xs.httpsession.component.SessionListenerComponentImpl@907b28b4

in the AppClusterMember's SystemOut.log and: -

in the Node Agent's native_stderr.log.

Interestingly, I also saw this: -

tail -f SystemOut.log

-bash: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable
-bash: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable
-bash: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable
bash: fork: retry: Resource temporarily unavailable
-bash: fork: Resource temporarily unavailable

which immediately reminded me of not one BUT two blog posts from last year: -



at which point I thought …. ah, yes, about those ulimits :-)

I referred back to an older set of notes, and found this: -

Need to ensure ulimits  are set: -

Increase: -

open files                      (-n) 10240
max user processes              (-u) 1024

to: -

open files                      (-n) 65536
max user processes              (-u) 16384

as follows: -

Add: -

# - nofile - max number of open files
wasadmin   soft    nofile  65536
wasadmin   hard    nofile  65536

# - nproc - max number of processes
wasadmin   soft    nproc   16384
wasadmin   hard    nproc   16384

to: -

/etc/security/limits.d/90-nproc.conf

Once I did this, and rebooted, everything came up ( not smelling of roses, but working A-OK ), which is nice.

Guess what I've added to my VM template ready for next week ??

This is something that I've recently added to my reading list.

It's by an IBM colleague, Mr Kim Clark Esq., and dates from 2010.

However, it's directly relevant to my current project, in the context of Long-Running and Straight Through business processing, hosted on IBM Business Process Manager Advanced 8.5.5.

I really really need to learn this stuff: -

IBM Business Monitor - Yet more on Cognos dependencies

This follows an earlier post: -


I saw a similar issue: -

Caused by: java.lang.UnsatisfiedLinkError: JCAM_Crypto_JNI (libCCLCore.so: cannot open shared object file: No such file or directory)

with Cognos 10.2.2 underlying IBM Business Monitor 8.5.6, during an installation on Red Hat Enterprise Linux 6.6 earlier today.

I went through the same problem determination regime as described in my earlier blog post, and found that the missing link was libstdc++.so.6.

Therefore, the solution was the same: -

yum install -y libstdc++.so.6 

which returned: -

...
Running Transaction
Installing : libstdc++-4.4.7-11.el6.i686 1/1 
Verifying : libstdc++-4.4.7-11.el6.i686 1/1 

Installed:
libstdc++.i686 0:4.4.7-11.el6 

Complete!
….

and all was then well.

How to manually generate a Heapdump in WebSphere on Windows

Problem(Abstract)

How to generate a heapdump without waiting for an OutOfMemoryError condition to occur.

Resolving the problem

Occasionally a heapdump needs to be generated without waiting for an OutOfMemoryError condition to occur. 

For example: an OutOfMemoryError will probably cause a system outage. On a production system this is not a desired event. If we manually create a heapdump before the OutOfMemoryError generates one, then the application server can be recycled and we will get a heapdump without an unscheduled outage. 

The manually generated heapdump will not be as useful as one which was generated by an OutOfMemoryError, but sometimes it can be of some use. The longer we can wait before generating the heapdump, the more likely the heapdump will contain the objects causing the OutOfMemory. If the heapdump is generated too soon, the largest memory user is not likely to be the same largest memory user when the heap is completely full.

This popped up via IBM developerWorks on Twitter - @developerWorks: -

Much has happened in the area of virtualization since the topic was first discussed in this column, so this is a good time to revisit (or re-introduce) virtualization and all its flavors to help you determine which type of virtualization could benefit your organization the most, and how to make it the most effective.

PLGC0049E: Propagation of the plug-in configuration file has failed for the Web server

If you get exceptions such as: -

PLGC0049E: Propagation of the plug-in configuration file has failed for the Web server

when trying to propagate the WebSphere Plugin configuration file from the WAS cell ( via the Deployment Manager ) to the IHS server, check that the Node Agent is running :-)

In my case, I have an unmanaged node ( so IHS is on the same "box" as the WAS Node Agent, and I am NOT running the IHS management server - apachectl ), and I'm using Jython to generate and propagate the Plugin configuration file ( plugin-cfg.xml ) and the TLS keyring: -

cellID=AdminControl.getCell()

AdminControl.invoke('WebSphere:name=PluginCfgGenerator,process=dmgr,platform=common,node=Dmgr,version=8.5.5.5,type=PluginCfgGenerator,mbeanIdentifier=PluginCfgGenerator,cell='+cellID+',spec=1.0', 'generate', '[/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/config '+cellID+' Node1 webserver1 false]', '[java.lang.String java.lang.String java.lang.String java.lang.String java.lang.Boolean]')

AdminControl.invoke('WebSphere:name=PluginCfgGenerator,process=dmgr,platform=common,node=Dmgr,version=8.5.5.5,type=PluginCfgGenerator,mbeanIdentifier=PluginCfgGenerator,cell='+cellID+',spec=1.0', 'propagate', '[/opt/IBM/WebSphere/AppServer/profiles/Dmgr01/config '+cellID+' Node1 webserver1]', '[java.lang.String java.lang.String java.lang.String java.lang.String]')

For the record, these were the exceptions that I was seeing in the Deployment Manager's SystemOut.log: -

Another useful link via @IBM_BPM 

<snip>
IBM® Business Process Manager is based on Java™ Platform, Enterprise Edition (Java EE) and is delivered largely through HTTP protocols. As a result, IBM Business Process Manager has the same security requirements as any other Java EE application.

IBM Business Process Manager defines a fine-grained authorization model that uses groups, roles, and teams.
