Error description
The customer is using Cognos Security (IntegratedSecurityMode=5) for user authentication in TM1 and TM1 Web.? ?Due to the customer's global IT policies, all web applications and portals must use CA SiteMinder for user authentication, thus they configured Cognos Security to use a Custom Java Authentication Provider (CJAP) to access CA SiteMinder. ? ?One of the customer's global IT policies (covering all web applications and portals) dictates that each logon (to a web application or portal) creates a SiteMinder session cookie which is invalidated by the logoff. To invalidate the SiteMinder session cookie every logout must call a dedicated logout page defined by CA SiteMinder. To achieve that the application's HTML logout page may execute a redirect to the CA SiteMinder's HTML logout page??In Cognos BI you can specify a Custom Logout Page (calling CA SiteMinder's logout page which invalidates the SiteMinder session cookie) in the configuration file system.xml? ?As such a feature does not exist for TM1 Web, the customer requested an enhancement to add this feature to TM1 Web.? ?In a future release of TM1 Web it shall be possible to customize the logoff in TM1 Web, the URL invoked by the Logoff button, that it invokes instead of the default URL another URL pointing to a Custom Logout Page which invalidates the SiteMinder session cookie. ?
