How to create users using command line utility jazn.jar

If you don't bother with LDAP (i.e. Active Directory) and use file based security for your
Oracle Application Server / SOA environment you can use jazn.jar to manage users and roles,
which makes it a little easier as opposed to using enterprise manager console.

Below are some examples of using jazn command line tool to create a new role, grant role to a
role, create a new user and grant role to a user in Oracle Application Server / SOA suite.

First you need to go to directory where you have your jazn.jar, tipically home oc4j
container:

$ cd $ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/home

To display help run:

$ java -jar -Doracle.j2ee.home=$ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/home jazn.jar -user oc4jadmin -password
<password> -help

To create a new role in oc4j_soa container:

$ java -jar -Doracle.j2ee.home=$ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/oc4j_soa jazn.jar -user oc4jadmin -password
<password> -addrole jazn.com SOA_administrator

To grant role to another role:

$ java -jar -Doracle.j2ee.home=$ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/oc4j_soa jazn.jar -user oc4jadmin -password
<password> -grantrole ascontrol_admin jazn.com -role SOA_administrator

To create a new user (dummy/welcome1) in oc4j_soa container:

$ java -jar -Doracle.j2ee.home=$ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/oc4j_soa jazn.jar -user oc4jadmin -password
<password> -adduser jazn.com dummy welcome1

To grant a role to user (role SOA_administrator to user dummy) in oc4j_soa container:

$ java -jar -Doracle.j2ee.home=$ORACLE_HOME/j2ee/oc4j_soa jazn.jar -user oc4jadmin -password
<password> -grantrole SOA_administrator jazn.com dummy

Unfortunately you have to re-start the application server for the changes to take effect.
