IQ Cockpit and multiple user

[robert_kratschmann]

In IQ Cockpit it is no problem to login with the existing DBA-User and after the registration and authentication of the agent it is no problem to work with IQ Cockpit. The documentation says: "Registration and authentication must be done once on each managed simplex. In a multiplex environment, it must be performed once on each node.". If now another User accesses IQ Cockpit the login into Cockpit works but the screens are not displaying information:

Accessing the Coordinator via Explore, IQ Servers, Security, Role-Based, Users you can find only on line with:

Name:

Server unauthenticated

Accessing the Multiplex via Explore, IQ Servers, Security, Role-Based, Users you can find only on line with (see attachment):

Name:

Multiplex

Registration and Authentication of the agent one a node appears to be working for the non-DBA-User without an error message but "authenticated" shows always "failed". What must be done that a non-DBA-User can work with Cockpit? No LDAP Server or Kerberos system is available.

Thanks

Hi,

I found the problem: You must grant the COCKPIT_ADMIN role to the user.

After the user got the COCKPIT_ADMIN role all information in Cockpit will be displayed correctly. There is no need for additional registration and authentication of the agent!

The DBA user, which has been used to register and authenticate the agent doesn't have the COCPIT_ADMIN role!!

it is very well documented in 'getting started with IQ cockpit' chapter in IQ Cockpit documentation.
