Adding Users to Groups

To add existing users to an existing group

  1. After the Fabric Manager upgrade process, browse to the /usr/local/ffm/scripts/ldap folder and copy the add-user-to-group.ldif file to the/home/administrator folder. It is recommended that you retain the same name.

  2. Using an editor such as vi, edit the file as follows and save the changes. The file also contains instructions in the form of comments.

    Note: When you replace the placeholders with actual values in the file, ensure that you remove the angular brackets.

    1. In the following line, replace <groupname> with the name of the group to which the user should be added.

      dn: cn=<groupname>,ou=groups,dc=unisys,dc=com

    2. In the following line, replace <userid> with the login id of the user who should be added.

      uniqueMember: uid=<userid>,ou=users,dc=unisys,dc=com

  3. Log in to the FMP and open a new terminal session or if you are connecting remotely, use a tool like PuTTY or the remote desktop function of the Fabric Management Platform and execute the following command: 

    ldapmodify -D "cn=root,dc=unisys,dc=com" -W -f /home/administrator/add-user-to-group.ldif

  4. Type the password. The default password is ‘LDAPAdmin@1’.

    The users are added to the group.
