Enable Guest User Account

As an administrator, you can enable a guest user that lets users access the CA SOI Dashboard without login credentials. The feature is disabled by default.

Follow these steps:

  1. Locate and open the following file on the UI Server:

    SOI_HOME\SamUI\webapps\sam\server-config.xml

  2. Add the following entry as the second to last line (below the </manager> line): 
    <guest-username>guest</guest-username>
  3. Restart the UI Server service.

    The patch adds user "guest" to the "Operators (read-only)" user group. You can adjust the access privileges as necessary.

    Your users use the following URL to access the CA SOI Dashboard as the guest user:

    http://UI_server:7070/sam/guest.jsp
