Deploying the integration files

To get started with the integration, deploy the Amazon Web Services Connector files to your PingFederate installation directory. This must be done on the administrative node installation first, regardless of whether you use PingFederate in STANDALONE mode or as part of a cluster.

Steps

  1. Download the Amazon Web Services Connector .zip archive from the Add-ons tab of the PingFederate downloads page or the Ping Identity Marketplace.

  2. Stop PingFederate.

  3. If you’re upgrading an existing deployment, delete the pf-aws-quickconnection-<version>.jar file from your <pf_install>/pingfederate/server/default/deploy directory.

  4. Extract the .zip archive and copy the pf-aws-quickconnection-<version>.jar file from the dist directory to the <pf_install>/pingfederate/server/default/deploy directory.

    You will use the supplied aws-saml-metadata.xml file later in the Creating a provisioning connection procedure.

  5. Enable the PingFederate provisioning engine:

    1. Open your <pf_install>/pingfederate/bin/run.properties file.

    2. Change pf.provisioner.mode to STANDALONE. Save the file.

      To configure the FAILOVER mode instead, see Deploying provisioning failover in the PingFederate Server Clustering Guide.

  6. Start PingFederate.

    Result:

    If you are using the PingFederate provisioning engine in STANDALONE mode on the administrative node, you have completed the deploying the integration files procedure. Otherwise, continue to step 7.

  7. If you are using the PingFederate provisioning engine in any mode other than STANDALONE mode, including FAILOVER mode in a clustered environment, repeat steps 2-4 and step 6 for each engine node.
