Morning All

We are experiencing some strange features with our setup of TM1 (10.1.1) and Cognos BI (10.1.1).

We've configured TM1 to use single-sign on, and set our IntegratedSecurityMode=5 in the TM1s.cfg

For users other then those assigned to the Admin groups, when logging on they are presented the persepctives window with no expandable cubes or dimensions in the viewer. Additionally, the security check for the group they have been assigned to looks as if it is removed when they login. I have reset the check box and got the user to F5 their session and they can then see all cubes and dimensions, and use TM1 normally.

This seems very strange, as SSO appears to be removing their security. Note this is not happening to admins. I have made sure that their network usernames are defined within the }ClientProperties cubes under the UniqueID property.

I think that this issue may be impacting another area which is when running reports in Cognos BI built from the TM1 cubes above, the user experiences an error which details no connection to the external source (which incidentally is the framework manager package). However again this works for admins even though our security suggests all users have access to run the reports.

Not sure if anyone has experienced these issues and was there a solution ?

I can't remember off the top of my head the different security modes (I'm sure somebody will help me out with that) but the admin group once assigned is not impacted by any other security. If you are using CAM for security then you need to create the groups there, assign the users to the groups then set the appropriate security for the group in TM1. But if 5 is mixed mode then you shouldn't need to do that. Have you checked the service admin settings in the admin console rather than the cfg?
