Setting up a SAML-compliant provider

ObjectScale currently supports only ADFS as a SAML-compliant Identity Provider. Perform the following steps to use ADFS as a SAML-compliant Identity Provider. ObjectScale will be the service provider.

About this task

You can use this interface to generate ObjectScale metadata XML to configure ObjectScale trust relationship with the identity provider. The generation requires a java key store and a DNS-domain-name which will be used as the entity Base URL to set the Location in the Assertion Consumer Service.

Steps

  1. Download the Identity Provider (ADFS) metadata file. The default URL to download ADFS metadata is https://[server-name]/FederationMetadata/2007-06/FederationMetadata.xml.
  2. Upload the downloaded metadata xml file when creating Identity provider.
  3. To create the Identity Provider in ObjectScale Portal UI, follow to Add a new identity provider to an account.

In order to establish trust relationship between ObjectScale and ADFS, ObjectScale metadata xml file is required.

  1. To create or download the ObjectScale SAML Service Provider Metadata file, refer Generate SAML Service Provider Metadata.
  2. Establish trust relationship between ObjectScale and ADFS using the downloaded ObjectScale SAML Service Provider Metadata file.
  3. Add claim rules in ADFS to add the required elements such as NameId, RoleSessionName, and Roles to the SAML authentication process.
    NOTE:If required, contact Dell remote support for configuring claim rules in ADFS.
    NOTE:Only one IdP is supported in the federation metadata from ADFS.
