Netcool Operations Insight - Hybrid deployment - Console integration definitions to ASM exist but are blank for deployment where the NOI cluster and on-prem domains are different.

How To


Summary

The integration kit for an NOI hybrid installation is successfully installed on the NOI console integrations are created, but when opening the console integration pages they are blank. The domain of on-prem WebGUI server is different than the domain of the NOI cluster.

Steps

For cross-domain hybrid deployments, apply the following:
1) Log into the OCP console and navigate to:
Projects->noi->Deployments
2) Search for:  
*-ibm-hdm-common-ui-uiserver
3) Under "Environment", change the “SESSION__COOKIE__SAMESITE” from “lax” to “None”.

After saving that change, the pod may restart.  If not, delete it so that it regenerates and picks up the change.
4) Log into the on-prem DASH server GUI as the primary admin user (usually "smadmin), and launch the WebSphere admin console.
5) In the WAS admin console, navigate to:
Security > Global security > Custom properties

6) Click "New" to create a new property:
Name: com.ibm.websphere.security.addSameSiteAttributeToCookie
Value: none
 Click the "Apply" button, and then the "Save..." link that appears at the top of the page.
7) Navigate to:
Servers > Server Types > WebSphere application servers > server1 > Session management > Custom properties
8) Search for the property named "CookieSameSite". If it exists, click on it to edit it. If it does not exists, create it.
9) Set the value of the property to: none
10) Click "OK", and then the "Save..." link that appears at the top of the page.
11) Restart the DASH/WebSphere server process.
If there are multiple DASH servers behind a load balancer, add/edit the properties to each DASH server.
