Access Management

Download AM

The Backstage download site hosts downloads, including a .zip file with all of the AM components, the .war file, AM tools, the configurator, web and Java agents, Identity Gateway, and documentation. Review the Software License and Subscription Agreement presented before you download AM files.

For each release of AM, you can download the entire package as a .zip file, only the AM .war file, or only the administrative tools as a .zip archive. The Archives only have the AM source code used to build the release.

After you download the .zip file, create a new directory for AM, and unzip the .zip file to access the content.

$ cd ~/Downloads
$ mkdir openam && cd openam
$ unzip ~/Downloads/AM-7.2.2.zip

When you unzip the archive of the entire package, you get ldif, license, and legal directories in addition to the following files:
