Integrating BMC Atrium Orchestrator Platform

BMC Atrium Orchestrator Platform 7.8 uses the BMC Atrium Single Sign-On authentication system to provide single sign-on and single sign-off. BMC Atrium Single Sign-On allows users to present credentials only once for authentication and subsequently be automatically authenticated by every BMC product that is integrated into the system. For more information about BMC Atrium Orchestrator Platform 7.8 installation and integration with BMC Atrium Single Sign-on, see the BMC Atrium Orchestrator Platform 7.8 online documentation.

Users, user groups and privileges defined in BMC Atrium Single Sign-On are used for BMC Atrium Orchestrator Platform group mapping. See Managing-users and Managing-user-groups.
