Groups not appearing in TM1 Contributor

[Venki@1688]

I have deployed an application in TM1 contributor and for which i am trying to assign rights in Manage Rights window, but i dont see the groups i created in Architect. I am using IntegratedSecurityMode '2' and have defined ClientCAMURI,ServerCAMURI in .cfg file properly and have set the AllowImportCAMClient option in TM1p.ini file and mentiond the cognos Gateway URI as well. I am able to connect to the Cognos Namespace but i don see the groups i created using cognos namespace in TM1 Contributor


Thanks in advance.

You need to go back and read the documentation, you are using the wrong security mode.

Initially i gave the integratedsecuritymode as 2 and created a group and assigned Admin rights to the user. Then i stopped the server and changed the security mode 4 and restarted the server. When i try to login to the application in Architect , it was taking through Cognos 8 login and i am able to login to the application. But now i am not able to login to contributor with both Admin and another client for which Admin group rights has been provided. I tried with integratedsecuritymode 5 as well. i am not able to work it out.

Kindly help on this.

Thanks in advance.

Clients and Groups have to be created in the 8 BI server (Cognos Connection). Then we need to pull them into TM1 and map them accordingly . The groups which are created in TM1 will not appear if the mode is integratedsecuritymode 5.

The groups which are created in TM1 will not appear if the mode is integratedsecuritymode 5.

The same is also true for TM1 Performance Modeler / TM1 Applications in version 10.1.1. And this is really frustrating, as the documentation of IntegratedSecurityMode clearly states:

The server uses IBM Cognos BI security authentication and supports user groups from both Cognos TM1 and Cognos BI. Use security mode 5 when you are running IBM Cognos TM1 Applications with IBM Cognos BI security.

Sad to say that one could almost expect some exceptions ...
