- Identity provider management access type
-
A user with identity provider (IDP) management access can configure LDAP and SAML authentication, SMTP, and user registry synchronization. This user can also customize the user interface and manage certificates. IDP management access is a subset of system configuration with fewer access privileges. For example, this access type does not include the ability to deploy or activate applications or configure database connections.
You can enable access for IDP management in nonproduction instances by using the IDP_ADMIN API. For more information, see Enabling access for identity provider administration by using APIs.
- Deploying Maximo Manage with externally built images
- You can instruct the operator not to create the admin and bundle images automatically. Instead, the operator can provide the admin and bundle images directly to be deployed for Maximo Manage. Use external images for a more flexible and faster image build process. For more information, see Deploying Maximo Manage with externally built images.
