To configure the authentication broker on node saturn

1. Create a principal for node saturn on root broker RB1. Execute the following command on root broker RB1.

   # vssat addprpl --pdrtype root --domain domainname \
    --prplname prplname --password password \
    --prpltype service

   For example:

   # vssat addprpl --pdrtype root \
   --domain root@RB1.brokers.example.com \
   --prplname saturn.nodes.example.com \
   --password flurbdicate --prpltype service

2. Ensure that there is no clock skew between the times on node saturn and RB1.

3. Copy the /opt/VRTSat/bin/root_hash file from RB1 to node saturn.

4. Configure AB on node saturn to talk to RB1.

   # vxatd -o -a -n prplname -p password -x vx -y domainname -q \
   rootbroker -z 2821 -h roothash_file_path

   For example:

   # vxatd -o -a -n saturn.nodes.example.com -p flurbdicate \
   -x vx -y root@RB1.brokers.example.com -q RB1 \
   -z 2821 -h roothash_file_path

5. Verify that AB is configured properly.

   # vssat showbrokermode

   The command should return 1, indicating the mode to be AB.
