Issue/Introduction
Problem
When trying to change the color and line width in CMDB Visualizer, saving the changes may produce the following error:
"ADM10001: the operation could not be completed because the Service Manager security settings. Contact your administrator. "
Environment
This problem was reported with CA Service Desk Manager (CA SDM) SDM 12.9, but may affect other CA SDM releases.
Cause
There are two possible causes for the problem:
1. The CA SDM user trying to make the change does not have any Role assigned.
This error in the Visualizer log shows the following:
"AHD03300:This operation requires Function Access for admin equal to View or Modify "
2. The CMDB Visualizer login must respect the way it is registered in CA SDM.
User was logging in to CMDB Visualizer in lowercase (servicedesk) while the CA SDM contact had upper + lowercase (ServiceDesk).
Resolution/Workaround
1. Assign a Role to the CA SDM user.
a. Open user detail page
b. Click Update Roles and click Search.
c. Assign Administrator Role to the user and click OK to complete the operation
