To add new users to the properties file used for domain management authentication, navigate to [JBOSS_HOME/bin] and run the add-user.sh/add-user.bat. A wizard would present a series of questions. Choose the answers as given below:

  • For question What type of user do you wish to add? choose a) Management User (mgmt-users.properties).

  • For question Enter the details of the new user to add . Enter username of the slave nodes. Ensure that the username of the slave nodes is identical to the names configured in step 3.4.2 Configuring interface for the slave nodes . For example, slave1, slave2

  • (Optional) For question What groups do you want this user to belong to? Enter the group the user belongs to.

  • For question About to add user '<Username>' for realm 'ManagementRealm'. Is this correct? Type yes and press return.

  • For question Is this new user going to be used for one AS process to connect to another AS process?e.g. for a slave host controller connecting to the master or for a Remoting connection for server to server EJB calls. Enter yes.

    After the last step, you are presented with a secret value. The secret value is used to configure authrntication for the slave nodes.

    Note: Repeat above steps for all the slave nodes.
