Unable to log on to the GUI when the user name is defined in both the local OS repository and the Windows domain repository

You are unable to log on to the IBM Spectrum Control GUI with a user name such as Administrator.

Problem

You are unable to log on to the IBM Spectrum Control GUI with a user name such as Administrator when the user name is defined in both the local operating system repository and the Windows domain repository.

Cause

This problem occurs because a user name can have some IBM Spectrum Control roles mapped to local operating system groups and other roles to Windows domain groups.

Environment

This problem occurs on Windows operating systems.

Resolving the problem

If a user name, such as Administrator, is defined in both the local operating system repository and the Windows domain repository, you must use a fully qualified name that contains either a domain name prefix or a machine prefix to log on to the IBM Spectrum Control GUI, for example, domain_name\Administrator or machine_name\Administrator.
