Validating the Production Admin Security Profile

Once you add a provider to the Admin security profile for SAP Mobile Platform Server, for example LDAP, you can test the login before removing the System Login (Admin Only) authentication provider from both components' configurations.

Prerequisites
To ease the troubleshooting process in the event validation problems arise, temporarily increase your log levels for the security component to capture more detailed events.
Task
  1. Log in to Management Cockpit using the login values of a user mapped to the Administrator role, for example an LDAP user that is in an LDAP group mapped to the Administrator logical role.
  2. If the login succeeds:
    1. Remove System Login (Admin Only) authentication provider from SAP Mobile Platform Server and Management Cockpit setup locations.
    2. Reduce the logging levels for both SAP Mobile Platform Server and Management Cockpit to Info or Warn.
  3. If the login fails, refer to the server log in SMP_HOME\Server\log\hostname-smp-server.log.
