Cause
In eDiscovery Platform version 8.2 the LDAP authentication password must be set using the "Property Browser" Support Feature. The eDiscovery Platform version 8.2 Veritas System Administration Guide incorrectly states that the password must be set using the Clearwell Commander utility, however the utility has no such option.
Resolution
To set the LDAP password on eDiscovery Platform version 8.2 and newer:
- Log into eDiscovery Platform as superuser or another System Manager user.
- Go to System > Support Features
- Add the clear-text password to the
esa.ldap.connectionPassword setting:
- Name of property to change:
esa.ldap.connectionPassword
- For New value: enter the clear-text password
- Check the box for Confirm change
- Click Submit
Note: The setting of esa.ldap.connectionPassword.enc is no longer used in eDiscovery Platform version 8.2 and newer. This is because the clear-text password that is specified for esa.ldap.connectionPassword is automatically encrypted when stored.
Issue/Introduction
User is unable to configure the LDAP authentication on eDiscovery Platform version 8.2 as the connection password cannot be set using the Clearwell Commander utility, as described in the eDiscovery Platform version 8.2 Veritas System Administration Guide.
