Replace WebLogic Oracle Wallets When Migrating to Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6

Summary

Weblogic administrators use wallets created by Oracle Wallet Manager to manage public key security credentials on application clients and servers. These wallets must first be converted to standard Java KeyStore (JKS) entries that can then be used to configure the credentials in Red Hat JBoss Enterprise Application Platform 6.

Convert the Oracle Wallet to Use the Standard Java KeyStore

Use the Oracle orapki command-line tool to convert the wallet to a standard JKS keystore. Refer to the Oracle Wallet Manager documentation for details: http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E16340_01/core.1111/e10105/walletmgr.htm#ASADM10989/.

Configure JBoss EAP 6 to Use the Java KeyStore

Java KeyStores are configured in the security subsystem of the server configuration file. The schema is defined in the JBOSS_INSTALL_DIRECTORY/docs/schema/jboss-as-config_1_4.xsd file. Be sure to replace JBOSS_INSTALL_DIRECTORY with the path to your JBoss EAP installation.

For details on how to configure the server to use keystores, refer to the chapter entitled Securing JBoss Enterprise Application Platform in the Administration and Configuration Guide for JBoss EAP.
