Unable to login to Unified Management Portal with Infrastructure Login

Products

Issue/Introduction

If you are unable to login to the Unified Management Portal (UMP) and the following are true:

• the username has upper and lower case
• the user is not an ldap user
• the user is able to login to Infrastructure Manager

Cause

You are running into a limitation with liferay, a technology that UMP is built on. The "nimbus" user that you are creating must be in lowercase for it to login to UMP.

This issue does not exist with LDAP users due to a different authentication path.

Resolution

Please only use alphanumeric lowercase characters for administrative "nimbus" users. These are users who are able to login to Infrastructure Manager, Admin  Console and UMP. They are able to view all origins unlike account contacts are created within the Infrastructure Manager or Admin Console instances.
