DX Unified Infrastructure Management (Nimsoft / UIM)

Issue/Introduction

We've installed the new version 9.0.2 of UIM and UMP and I'm not seeing Operator Console Basic in the User Properties.

Operator Console is not visible in USM.


Why is this not listed and ow to we add it?
 

Environment

UIM 9.X
Distsrv 7.95
HUb 7.95
Controller 7.95
 

Cause

The new ACL's were not added to the security.cfg from the
<Nimsoft>\probes\service\distsrv\base_acls.cfg

Resolution

Method 1:
 1. On the primary hub, check the file <Nimsoft>\probes\service\distsrv\base_acls.cfg and make sure it has the  Operator Console Basic ACLs below.
If they are not there, you can manually add them by copy pasting the below.
<Operator Console Basic>
name = Operator Console Basic
desc = Access to OperatorConsole portlet
type = UMP
access = admin
apply_to_existing_acls = Superuser,Administrator,Operator
</Operator Console Basic>

2. In Infrastructure Manager, navigate the distsrv probe on the primary hub.

3. With the distsrv probe selected, press "Ctrl-P" the probe Utility (pu) should appear.

4. In the probe commandset, select callback set_acl_init with the parameter value "base_acls.cfg". The callback updates the security.cfg with the ACLs, it will not delete any ACLs, nor change any ACLs.



5. In infrastructure manager, open Security -> Manage Access Control List. Check to make sure the ACL has USM Monitoring Configuration Service, USM Edit Monitoring Templates and USM Edit Monitoring Station Groups,


6. Logout, and log back in with the user, the issue should now be resolved.



 



METHOD 2: Probe Utility through command line



Windows:
"C:\Program Files (x86)\Nimsoft\bin\pu.exe" -u administrator -p (password) distsrv set_acl_init base_acls.cfg

where (password) is the password for the built-in administrator user.

Linux:
/opt/nimsoft/bin/pu -u administrator -p (password) distsrv set_acl_init base_acls.cfg

Example output:

C:\Program Files (x86)\Nimsoft\bin>pu.exe -u administrator -p xxxxxxxx  distsrv set_acl_init base_acls.cfg

Aug 20 02:29:41:619 pu: SSL - init: mode=0, cipher=DEFAULT, context=OK
======================================================
Address: distsrv                     Request: set_acl_init
======================================================
set_acl_init:   PDS_PCH           8 success

4. IM check that the USM Monitoring ACLs are now displayed in the ACL list by selecting Security->Manage Access Control list from the IM drop down menu.



5. Log Off and Log in again in UMP, the monitoring tab is now displaying for USM servers or groups.
