LDAP Namespace with BlueGroups

  • 1.  LDAP Namespace with BlueGroups

    Posted Thu March 12, 2020 10:32 AM

    Hello to all!
    CA 11.1.5

    Does anyone have success in using IBM's BlueGroups for authentication?

    I want to give all members of a bluegroup access to our CA-reports etc..
    Up to now I have the LDAP authentication on bluepages-level working but not on bluegroups-level - that means I've to grant each single User to use CA.

    In CA configuration there is  section under the LDAP namespace called "Group mappings (Advanced)" where the name is "cn" and the member is "uniquemember", excactly as it is configured in LDAP. I can select it with CLI tools like ldapsearch but cannot get it to work in CA.

    So the question is, how to setup LDAP with BlueGroups within CA configuration?

    Hope you understood what I need!

    Many thanks in advance,
    Juergen Blecker
