Make the use of LDAP Server optional

34 Views

Hi,

we are running an SAP EP 6 SP20 on Windows 2003 Enterprise Server. Our UME Configuration is defined as using an LDAP Server AND the Portal Database. Our portal is mostly used as an information basis used by anonymous access (Guest), some users are able to authenticate themself against the LDAP Server to get more services.

No my question: Is it possible to configure the Portal in that way, that it uses the LDAP Server if available otherwise ignore it and therefore

an authentication of users except the users defined in the portal database is not possible.

At the moment our portal is not available if the LDAP Server is not available our target is to uncouple the strong binding to the LDAP Server.

If the LDAP Server is down or not available no authentication against this UME-Datasource is possible, if available it can be used.

I could not find any parameter or configuration example to configure this behaviour.

The first priority for our portal is being available for information purposes, the second priority is being available for additional services needing authentication.

Is there anyone there having an idea how to solve this?

Regards

Edmund
