Configuring the TM1 Web login page using AdminHostName and TM1ServerName parameters
If you set a value for either of these parameters in the tm1web_config.xml file, then the login process uses the specified value and does not prompt the user for this information.
AdminHostName Parameter
This parameter specifies the name of the Admin Host on which a TM1 Admin Server is running. Edit the AdminHostName parameter in the tm1web_config.xml file using the following format:
<add key="AdminHostName" value="HostName"/>
where HostName
can
be one of the following values:
- If
HostName
is blank (default value), then the login page displays the Admin Host prompt. - If
HostName
is set to the name of a valid TM1 Admin Host, then IBM TM1 Web uses that Admin Host for the login process and does not prompt the user.
TM1ServerName Parameter
This parameter sets the name of the TM1 server. Edit the TM1ServerName parameter in the tm1web_config.xml file using the following format:
<add key="TM1ServerName" value="ServerName"/>
where ServerName
can
be one of the following values:
- If
ServerName
is blank (default value), then the TM1 server prompt is displayed on the IBM TM1 Web login page. - If
ServerName
is set to a valid TM1 server name, then the login page does not display a prompt for either the Admin Host or the TM1 server. - If the AdminSvrSSLCertID parameter is incorrectly configured, the server name pull-down displays as empty and an error is logged in the TM1 Web log file. For more information, see Running TM1 in Secure Mode using SSL in TM1 Operation.
After the user enters a valid User Name and Password, IBM TM1 Web will log in to the TM1 server specified by the TM1ServerName parameter in the tm1web_config.xml file.
For example, the TM1ServerName parameter could be set to planning sample, as shown in the following code.
<add key="TM1ServerName" value="planning sample" />
