    By default, Enterprise Manager 12.8 and below will name the custom attributes for SAM endpoints and accounts as below:

    •     Custom 1

    •     Custom 2

    •     Custom 3

    •     Custom 4

    •     Custom 5

     

    To rename these attributes to something more descriptive:

    •     Stop JBoss

    •     Navigate to  ‘\JBoss-4.2.3-GA\server\default’, and remove the files and folders from ‘tmp’ & ‘work’ directories.

    •     Navigate to ‘\jboss-4.2.3.GA\server\default\deploy\IdentityMinder.ear\custom\ppm\resourceBundles\accountPasswords_en.properties’

    •     Edit the file ‘accountPasswords_en.properties’ and update the following tokens as below.

     

    Note: Make sure all the occurrences of these tokens are properly updated

    Example:

    CUSTOM1_INFO=Organization

    CUSTOM2_INFO=Build/Run

    CUSTOM3_INFO=Dev/Prod

    CUSTOM4_INFO=Application

     

    •     Save the changes and exit the file.

    •     Start JBoss service

    •     From Enterprise Manager , search SAM endpoints and/or SAM accounts and view the information section to confirm the custom changes
