2.2 Setting the user account authentication mode

Use the jpcvsvr.ini file to set the authentication mode of a user account (management method).

To set the authentication mode (management method) of a user account:

  1. Stop the PFM - Manager and PFM - Web Console services.
    Stop the services in the order of PFM - Web Console and PFM - Manager.

  2. Use a text editor or a similar tool to open the jpcvsvr.ini file.
    The jpcvsvr.ini file is stored in the following locations:

    On physical hosts:
    In Windows:
    installation-folder\mgr\viewsvr\jpcvsvr.ini
    In UNIX:
    /opt/mgr/viewsvr/jpcvsvr.ini

    On logical hosts:
    In Windows:
    environment-directory\jp1pc\mgr\viewsvr\jpcvsvr.ini
    In UNIX:
    environment-directory/jp1pc/mgr/viewsvr/jpcvsvr.ini

  3. Change the value of UserServer.authenticationMode in the jpcvsvr.ini file.
    The following table describes the authentication mode settings for UserServer.authenticationMode in the jpcvsvr.ini file.

    Table 2-2 Authentication mode settings

    Authentication mode Settings
    PFM authentication mode UserServer.authenticationMode=PFM
    JP1 authentication mode UserServer.authenticationMode=JP1

    Reference note:
    The PFM authentication mode is set if you specify an invalid value.

  4. Save and then close the jpcvsvr.ini file.

  5. Start the services of PFM - Manager and PFM - Web Console.
    Start PFM - Manager, and then start PFM - Web Console.
    The changed jpcvsvr.ini file is loaded, and then the authentication mode is set.

Note:
A message indicating an authentication error appears if, after the authentication mode is set, you logged on to PFM - Web Console by using a user account with a management method that is different from the set mode.

Reference note:
Overwrite the jpcvsvr.ini file with the jpcvsvr.ini.model file (in the same folder) to restore the default settings for the jpcvsvr.ini file.
