Core Configuration Manager sharing credentials

Post by TBT »

I seem to recall a few versions back an experimental feature which allowed Core Configuration Manager to share the same login credentials as User Accounts. Was this removed?

It was. Though I am unsure if this was due to security concerns or if it was to keep the codebase for the ccm closer to ql .

Unfortunate. We're finding it difficult to manage users between the two authentication mechanisms, especially across eight XI servers.

Sorry for the inconvenience! You will have to create users that have access to the CCM manually: CCM->Config Manager Admin->Manage Config Access.
