Description
Login validates a user with CA SDM login validation and returns a unique session ID that is required for most other web method calls. This key should be freed with logout(). A SID may expire if it is not used before a time out elapses.
The username/password is validated exactly the same as the CA SDM Web client; the contact’s Access Type specifies the validation method. The default access policy will be applied to control and manage all subsequent accesses after a successful call of this function. The login user (not proxy contact specified in the default policy) is then responsible for subsequent web service activities. All function group security and data partition are enforced for the login user.
