Regarding User management

• CA Test Data Manager (Data Finder / Grid Tools)

Issue/Introduction

    We developed a code for API call to publish jobs from CA TDM portal. We need a common Username and password that can be used to execute that API. I created a new user as administrator in CA TDM portal and assigned the user to project group.  Then I did password reset for the user. When I tried to log in to the portal with this User, getting error as UserName or Password Invalid.

    Please help us on this.

Environment

Release : 4.8

Component : CA Test Data Manager

Portal is configured with LDAP authentication

Resolution

When portal is configured with LDAP user and if you want to allow anhy new user with non-LDAP authentication, please update the table [gtrep_security_user] with an entry as NATIVE for column [su_authority_name]

update gtrep_security_user set su_authority_name=NATIVE where [su_name] = 'tdm_non_ldap_user'
