IC91649: 5.1.1 UPGRADE REMOVES WAS ADMINISTRATIVE ROLE: UNABLE TO LOG LOG INTO TIP OR TPC WITH LDAP IDS AFTER UPGRADE.

APAR status

• Closed as program error.

Error description

• Applying the 5.1.1 PTF onto an existing 5.1 TPC server will
  break TIP/WAS administrative role configuration.  TIP reverts to
  only authenticating the local adminstrative ID.  This ID is
  assigned the "Auditor" role within the WAS admin console.  TIP
  is still able to look up users/groups against the LDAP server
  but TPC fails to authenticate any LDAP IDs.
  This presents to the end-user as a simple user authentication
  failure in the TPC GUI.
  RECREATE STEPS:
  Apply TPC 5.1.1 PTF to existing TPC server with LDAP
  authentication configured
  Observe that LDAP users no longer authenticate in TPC.
