Cognos Express 9.5 CAM security - TM1 client/groups

Post by Miltonb »

Hi ,

I am running Cognos Express 9.5 with IntegratedSecurityMode = 5 (i.e.: CAM security).
I am using an active directory as well.

I control security through the User, Groups and roles in the IBM Cognos Administration portal. Within the "Cognos" folder i created a sub folder and added groups in here. Within these groups I add users by searching the Active Directory. I have the "everyone" group as a member of "Express Xcelerator Client Users " and "Express Users" groups. When I want to add a new user I add him to a group in my sub folder and the first time he logs on I notice he is added to the }Clients dimension in TM1/Xcelerator. However, I am now trying to delete a user and even after removing him from all the groups in my subfolder he is in that user never exits the }Clients dimension. Anyone able to enlighten me more how the clients/groups work in Express and where I am able to find the files/folders containing this info ( Have a dev box and would like to replicate the client/group structure).

Thanks :)
