Impossible to add an LDAP login into UVMS

Products

• CA Automic Dollar Universe

Issue/Introduction

Unable to add an LDAP login into the Univiewer Management Server (UVMS) either using uniadd LOGIN command  or from the Univiwer Console.

• Expected Behavior: Users should be able to successfully configure and add LDAP logins within UVMS for authentication.

• Actual Behavior: The system fails to add the LDAP login. To resolve this, code changes were required to introduce a "normalize case" flag in the node settings. This flag checks the LDAP server and restricts duplicate user creation within UVMS when the same username is entered using a different case (e.g., preventing the creation of both "UserA" and "usera").
