Chapter 1 Introduction to Jaguar CTS

Using Jaguar Manager and Security Manager

Jaguar Manager and Security Manager run within Sybase Central. Use Jaguar Manager to configure the Jaguar server and to define and deploy software components and packages. Use Security Manager to manage SSL certificates, the test CA, and public and private key pairs for the Jaguar server.

   You can connect to Jaguar server version 3.6 from Jaguar Manager and Security Manager version 3.6, but you cannot connect to earlier versions of the Jaguar server from Jaguar Manager or Security Manager version 3.6.

To use Jaguar Manager or Security Manager, you must be the jagadmin user or belong to the Admin role. If you are connecting for the first time, use jagadmin as the user name and leave the password blank.

For information on the following topics, see the Jaguar CTS System Administration Guide:

• For additional information on Jaguar administrative privileges, see "Admin role in Jaguar."
• For additional security you can establish a password for the jagadmin user. See "Administration password and OS authentication."
• Jaguar comes preconfigured to allow you to run the sample applications and to create the applications used in the tutorials. You may need to configure Jaguar further to run other applications.
• Detailed information about Security Manager.

A Jaguar server must be running before Sybase Central can connect to it.

Starting Jaguar Manager and Security Manager

Jaguar Manager and Security Manager are plug-ins for Sybase Central. You must start Sybase Central first, then start the plug-ins from within it.

To start Sybase Central:

1. Double-click the Jaguar Manager icon in the Jaguar CTS program window, or select Start | Programs | Sybase | Jaguar CTS | Jaguar Manager.
   
   

Once the Sybase Central screen appears you can start Jaguar Manager, Security Manager, or both.

To start both Jaguar Manager and Security Manager:

1. Select Tools | Connect | Security Manager. The Login screen appears.
   
   
2. On the Login screen:
   
   
   1. Enter the jagadmin user name.
      
      
   2. Enter the jagadmin password if you have established one. Otherwise, leave this field blank.
      
      
   3. Specify the host name or IP address. The default is localhost. You should change the default setting to the actual machine name or IP address of your machine. See "Preconfigured listeners" in the Jaguar CTS System Administration Guide for more information.
      
      
   4. Verify the Jaguar port number.
      
      The machine name or IP address and port number correspond to the Jaguar host entry and IIOP port number defined in the listener.
      
      
   5. Enter the PIN to connect to the Sybase PKCS #11 token. The default PIN is sybase. See "Changing the user PIN" in the Jaguar CTS System Administration Guide for more information.
      
      
   6. Click Connect.
      
      
   
   
3. Click the Sybase Central icon. You now have access to both Security Manager and Jaguar Manager and the resources that they manage.
   
   

To start Jaguar Manager only:

1. Select Tools | Connect | Jaguar Manager.
   
   
2. On the Login screen, enter the jagadmin user name. Specify the host name or IP address, verify the Jaguar port number, and click Connect. The machine name or IP address and port number correspond to the Jaguar host entry and IIOP port number defined in the listener.
   
   

If Jaguar Manager is running and you want to start Security Manager:

1. Select Tools | Connect | Security Manager.
   
   
2. Enter the PIN to connect to Sybase PKCS #11. The default PIN is sybase.
   
   

Standalone versions of Jaguar Manager and Security Manager

If you install the Jaguar CTS client software you can run standalone versions of Jaguar Manager and Security Manager. This is helpful for managing a server, generating stubs and skeletons, managing certificates, and so on, from a Jaguar client.

To start the standalone Jaguar Manager, go to the Jaguar client installation directory and enter:

bin\sajagmanager.bat

Profile Manager

You can also use the Profiles field to log in to Jaguar Manager. The Profiles field allows you to select predefined login profiles to speed up the connection process. Define profiles using the Profile Manager, then select the profile from the drop-down list in the login window and enter a password to connect to the port defined in the profile.

To define a profile from the login window:

1. Click the Profile Manager button.
   
   
2. Click Add and define the following fields:
   
   
   • Profile Name - the name of the profile that displays in the Profiles drop-down list.
   • User Name - the name of the user connecting to the port; for example, jagadmin.
     To log in using a profile, you must provide a password in the login window that corresponds to the user name of the login profile.
     
   • Host Name - the host name to which you are connecting.
   • Port Number - the port on the host to which you are connecting.
   
   
   
3. Click OK to add the profile.
   
   

To delete a profile, highlight the profile and click Delete.

Disconnecting from Jaguar

Sybase Central allows you to disconnect Jaguar Manager from a Jaguar server so that you can connect to another server, or reconnect to the same server, without restarting Jaguar Manager.

To disconnect from Jaguar:

1. Select Tools | Disconnect | Jaguar Manager.
