Body

The following method has been tested for disabling authentication for
operator views on Impact  611

Follow these 4 steps:
 

1. Acquire a custom built opview.war from Impact Level 3 specific to your release.
This opview.war has had the security constraints removed and has been rebuilt.

2. Place this opview.war in the following directory on your install:

/IBM/tivoli/impact/integration/installableApps/


3. Go to  /IBM/tivoli/tipv2/profiles/TIPProfile/bin
and run the wasadmin console
./wsadmin.sh -username tipadmin -password tippass

(paste this at the following prompt  wsadmin>
$AdminApp update isc modulefile {-operation delete -contenturi opview.war }

when you see: Update of isc has ended.
paste this
$AdminConfig save
then
exit


4. go to /IBM/tivoli/impact/bin and run

./nc_ant -f ../install/updateEarWar.xml -Dnc_command=deploy
-Dnc_type=module -Dnc_name=opview.war
-Dnc_passwd=password

(password is the tipadmin password)

when you see:

BUILD SUCCESSFUL
Total time: X minute XX seconds



To test:  open your browser at the opview index page:

e.g: https://XXX:16311/opview/index


All of the opviews will then be displayed.

Authentication will not be requested.
