Dell PowerFlex v3.6.x User Roles and LDAP Usage Technical Notes

Disable local authentication on the PowerFlex Gateway

If only LDAP authentication will be used, and native authentication will be disabled, use the following task to disable local authentication in the gatewayUser.properties file. If local authentication should remain available, skip this task.

Steps

  1. Using a text editor, open the gatewayUser.properties file.
    The gatewayUser.properties file is located in the following directory on the PowerFlex Gateway server:
    • Linux: /opt/emc/scaleio/gateway/webapps/ROOT/WEB-INF/classes
    • Windows: C:\Program Files\EMC\ScaleIO\Gateway\webapps\ROOT\WEB-INF\classes\
  2. Change the gateway-admin.disable.local.login property to "true":
    gateway-admin.disable.local.login=true.
  3. Save and close the file.
  4. Restart the PowerFlex Gateway service:
    • On a Linux server run:
      service scaleio-gateway restart
    • On a Windows server: From the Windows Services window, restart the EMC ScaleIO Gateway.

Results

When the configuration is complete, you must log in to the PowerFlex Gateway using LDAP user credentials. For example:

user: sio_1@ldaps.local, password: password
