UVMS: duplicated LDAP Login is created with default group Operators

Products

• CA Automic Dollar Universe

Issue/Introduction

In UVMS, with LDAP authentication mode, a user logs with UVC using the wrong case (ie U5021000 instead of u5021000 ).

As a result, this User U5021000 has only the group Operators attached:

The Node Settings - Advanced Settings in UVMS is:

Automatic Registration for New Users (LDAP only) : Yes

 

Environment

Release : 6.x

Component : DOLLAR UNIVERSE

Cause

By design: user logged to UVMS with the wrong login ( in uppercase).

 

Resolution

In order to prevent LDAP users from being created into UVMS with the default Group assigned (Operators), set the following in UVMS Node Settings - Advanced Settings:

Automatic Registration for New Users (LDAP only) : No

 

Else, please ask user to Log with the correct case as UVMS is case sensitive.
