Procedure documentationUsing Log Viewer UMT Locate this document in the navigation structure

Prerequisites

  • AS Java should be started only if a user from the AS Java Administrators group performs the authentication.

  • To start the Log Viewer server in SSL mode, first a certificate needs to be added, which will then let you run Log Viewer UMT.

Procedure

  1. To start the tool, go to the server directory and execute the lv_user_management batch file.

  2. When the tool is launched for the first time, keystore information is requested. Browse to the previously created keystore of type PKCS#12, which contains only one entry, which is called PrivateKey with associated CertificateChain.

  3. Once logged in, you can:

    • Manage users – create and delete users, and modify passwords. This could be performed either by the buttons below the table or by the User Management dropdown menu.

    • Change the PKCS#12 keystore or exit the tool. This can be performed within the File dropdown menu.

Commands Descriptions:

Create User (C) – creates a new user to access the Log Viewer server

Modify Password (M) – changes a password for the selected user in the table

Delete User (D) – deletes a selected user

Replace Keystore (R) – replaces keystore PKCS#12 by a new one. This leads to:

  • Re-encryption of the user names in the user store;

  • Log Viewer server will use the new private key and certificate to initiate SSL connection.

    In order for the new certificate to be loaded, you have to restart the Log Viewer server.

Exit (E) – closes the Log Viewer UMT
