Issue
- Slow login issues to security console after updating to 8.5
- Logging on to the security console (either password/passcode) takes 1 minute and longer.
Cause
- RSA Authentication Manager tries to resolve names of the following CAS URLs when accessing the security console regardless of using CAS or not.
provisioning.access.securid.com provisioning.access.securid.com.techmatrix.co.jp provisioning.access-eu.securid.com provisioning.access-eu.securid.com.techmatrix.co.jp provisioning.access-anz.securid.com provisioning.access-anz.securid.com.techmatrix.co.jp
- Issue is related to an upcoming feature for on-demand cloud tenant provisioning: NGX-23460. This feature will be turned on in the Cloud early next year, and the following DNS entries will go live at that point.
provisioning.access.securid.com provisioning.access-eu.securid.com provisioning.access-anz.securid.com
Workaround
- Launch an SSH client, such as PuTTY.
- Login to the primary Authentication Manager server as rsaadmin and enter the operating system password.
- Change the directory to /utils.
login as: rsaadmin Using keyboard-interactive authentication. Password: Last login: Fri Dec 4 13:37:02 2020 from 192.168.20.102 RSA Authentication Manager Installation Directory: /opt/rsa/am rsaadmin@bharatham85:~> cd /opt/rsa/am/utils
- Update auth_manager.dynamic.tenant.provisioning.service.enabled from true to false using the command below, enter operations console administrator password when prompted.
./rsautil store -o <OC_admin> -a update_config auth_manager.dynamic.tenant.provisioning.service.enabled false GLOBAL 500Snippet below
rsaadmin@bharatham85:/opt/rsa/am/utils> ./rsautil store -o ocadmin -a update_config auth_manager.dynamic.tenant.provisioning.service.enabled false GLOBAL 500 Please enter OC Administrator password: ********* psql.bin:/tmp/b67c9afa-49d4-41bd-b22d-1898680570a7268818817458797075.sql:167: NOTICE: Changed the value of configuration parameter 'auth_manager.dynamic.tenant.provisioning.service.enabled' from 'true' to 'false' for the instance 'GLOBAL'. update_config --------------- (1 row) rsaadmin@bharatham85:/opt/rsa/am/utils>
Notes
- Restart authentication manager services.
- Restarting authentication manager services is not mandatory, without a restart it may take up to 10-15 minutes for the changes to take effect.
- Above update should be performed on primary server only.
- In the future, if customer wishes to utilize feature for on-demand cloud tenant provisioning, they have to first set back the flag to true for the said option is available.
