Websphere Node Federating issue

Question

I have created a DMGR profile in my host which is successs. On the same host i have created a managed node. Now when i am trying to federate the node to DMGR i am getting below error :

ADMU006E : Exception creating Deployment Manager Connection: com.ibm.websphere.management.exception.ConnectorException: ADMC0016E: The system cannot create a SOAP connector to connect to host **** at port 8879

Now to verify SOAP connection i have run the below command :

** wsadmin.sh -conntype SOAP -port -host **

Running this script from bin in dmgr profile.. it is connecting fine but failing with the same exception when running from bin directory of managed node profile.

To verify further i done the same setup in a different host by creating a dmgr and a node. It was all fine. DMGR profile created and node got federated in one go.

Not sure what exactly is the issue here.

Have verified that my port and hoat details are all correct. Also that my dmgr is running.

Answer 1

May or may not be relevant, but I've seen this when the SOAP port isn't open in the firewall. Are you sure traffic on that port is allowed?

Answer 2

Thanks Michal, ephonk for your inputs. Found the solution to above issue.

Issue was with the java.security file present in the WAS_HOME/java/jre/lib/security location.

In this file the SSL values were as below : ssl.SocketFactory.provider=com.ibm.jsse2.SSLSocketFactoryImpl ssl.ServerSocketFactory.provider=com.ibm.jsse2.SSLServerSocketFactoryImpl

We changed to below values and were successfully able to Federate the node to DMGR.

ssl.SocketFactory.provider=com.ibm.websphere.ssl.protocol.SSLSocketFactory ssl.ServerSocketFactory.provider=com.ibm.websphere.ssl.protocol.SSLServerSocketFactory
