Perform the following procedure to create a skin response.
Follow these steps:
  1. Log in to one of the following interfaces as an administrator with Domain privileges:
    • For CA SSO Web Access Manager r12 or higher, log in to the Administrative UI.
    • For CA eTrust SiteMinder 6.0 SP5, log in to the Policy Server User Interface.
    For information on using these interfaces, see the documentation for the version of CA SSO that you are using.
  2. Locate the policy domain that protects the
    Identity Manager
    Environment. The domain name has the following format:
    environment_nameDomain
    environment_name
    Defines the name of the
    Identity Manager
    Environment.
    For example, when the
    Identity Manager
    environment name is
    employees
    , the domain name is
    employees
    Domain.
    The policy domain must be associated with the user directory that contains the
    Identity Manager
    users who will use the skin.
  3. View the realms for the domain.
    You see the following realms depending on the features you configured for the environment:
    • environment_name
      _ims_realm -- Protects the
      Identity Manager
      Environment.
    • environment_name
      _pub_realm -- Enables support for public tasks, such as self-registration and forgotten password tasks.
      This realm appears only when you have configured a public alias.
  4. Create a rule in each of the realms. Specify the following:
    • Resource: /*
    • Actions: GET, POST
    To simplify administration, include the skin in the rule name. For example, when the skin name is
    yourskin
    , create a rule named
    yourskin
    skin.
  5. Create a response for the domain with the following response attributes:
    • Attribute: WebAgent-HTTP-Header-Variable
      This adds a new HTTP header to the response.
    • Attribute Kind: Static
    • Variable Name: Enter one of the following variable names:
      • skin -- Use this variable when all
        Identity Manager
        users see the same skin.
      • skin
        x --
        Use this variable if you have multiple skins. The
        x
        represents a priority value where 1 is the highest priority and 999 is the lowest priority.
    • Variable Value: Specify the name of the skin.
  6. Create a policy in the policy domain with the following values:
    • Users: Specify users who should see the skin. For example, if members of the sales organization should see the skin, be sure to include ou=sales in the policy.
    • Rules: Add the rules you created in Step 4. Associate each rule with the response you created in Step 5.
