Note
When using Active Directory Delegate Mode, security users can log in using their Active Directory user name and password. Active Directory users are granted permission to work with MainView Middleware Monitor based on their group membership.
Groups must be created in MainView Middleware Monitor (using the Security Tab in the Management Console) with the same name as an existing Active Directory group. Permissions can be granted to that group to allow all members of that group to log in and use MainView Middleware Monitor.
For example, user "Bob" is a member of the Active Directory group "MQAdmins." To enable "Bob" to log in, ensure that an "MQAdmins" group exists in the product and that it has the permissions assigned appropriately to the role.
When a user logs into a MainView Middleware Monitor system that is configured in Active Directory Delegate Mode, a user account is automatically created in the internal LDAP directory. Passwords are synchronized automatically (i.e., users can change their Active Directory password without having to make any changes to MainView Middleware Monitor).
