If the Systemwalker User Management function and the Systemwalker Single Sign-On function are to be used as a result of adding Systemwalker products or upgrading existing Systemwalker products, consider migrating the existing user information.
The system used for user IDs must be unified in order to use the Systemwalker User Management function and the Systemwalker Single Sign-On function to unify authentication for all Systemwalker products.
If user IDs are not unified, the following problems will occur when an attempt is made to use these functions.
Users will need to use different user IDs for each product, and will not be able to use multiple products as a common user.
If multiple users have been using the same user ID for different products, it will not be possible to migrate existing user information.
The following procedure is an example of how to resolve these problems.
The administrator creates a rule for determining a unique user ID for each user ((such as using employee numbers as user IDs, for example).)
The administrator changes the existing user IDs for each product according to this rule.
The administrator makes environment settings for connecting to the Systemwalker authentication repository on all of the servers where the products are running.
The administrator creates a CSV file containing information about all users in order to register the user information with the Systemwalker authentication repository. The administrator then uses the Systemwalker authentication repository user management command to register the user information. At this point, the administrator notes the initial password for each user.
The administrator informs each user (that will use the Systemwalker products) of their user ID and password, and prompts them to change their password from the Systemwalker products.
