TC 1.0 can't import users who have multiple internet address


Rachel Wei (76192) | asked Dec 23 '08, 2:19 p.m.
We configured RQM standard edition 1.0 to use LDAP with IBM bluepages, we can import most of the users through Team Concert 1.0, but some of them can't be imported, with Error Message "Invalid user. this user has more than one user id. "

finally we found that these users have more than one IBM internet addresses, one of the users' info is as below, dose it mean that the Rational Team Concert can't import this kind of users?

You need to map userId to preferredIdentity attribute instead of mapping userid to mail attribute.

https://jazz.net/wiki/bin/view/Main/LDAP4Dummies talks about the configuration in detail.

Yes, we followed the Wiki page you mentioned to configure the LDAP, we mapping users by using bluepage groups with JAZZ groups, but the users who have multiple internet addresses can't be found in the user repository after the nightly sync with LDAP.

we have totally 169 users, 37 of them can't be found in Active users, these users are all have multiple internet address. for other users who have single internet address are working fine.

we also try to import the user manually in Rational Team Concert, but got message "Invalid user. this user has more than one user id. "

I'm not quite sure the preferredIdentity you said, as we didn't find this kind of word in that wiki page.

What we did is creating Blue Groups, then added all of our users to them, then map it with a Jazz group.

Below is the group mapping we configured for RQM. the blue groups RQM_TPM_* were created by ourselves in IBM BlueGroups.

Jazz to LDAP Group Mapping
JazzAdmins= RQM_TPM_ADMIN, JazzUsers= RQM_TPM_USER, JazzDWAdmins= RQM_TPM_DWADMIN, JazzGuests= RQM_TPM_GUEST

I am talking about user properties mapping..

It should be userid=preferredIdentity,name=cn,emailAddress=mail

I believe you have it as userId=preferredIdentity,name=cn,emailAddress=mail

preferredIdentity is a single valued mail attribute in LDAP while mail is a many valued mail attribute..

There was a typo in my last comment..

You should change it to

userid=preferredIdentity,name=cn,emailAddress=mail


and users should login using their email address.

Thank you! I manually add one user through team concert, it works.
I will check the user repository after nightly sync with LDAP done for other users. Will let you know the results next Monday.

Happy new year!

I check the sync results with LDAP, all the users can be found in active users in RQM after mapping userId to preferredIdentity attribute. Great!

But I found another issue, there is a user who left the company, his name in blue group has been removed, but the user's name still can be found in RQM active users. Does it mean that we need manually archive the user in RQM? Dose it means that the RQM nightly sync with LDAP only sync the newly added user in blue groups?
