Resolution
- From the RSA Security Console, navigate to Administration > Administrative Roles > Add New.
- In the Administrative Role Name field, enter service-accountrole1 as a name for the new administrative role.
- Under Administrative Scope, choose the service accounts domain.
- Click Next to accept the name and domain scoping (with no changes).
- Click Next to accept General Permissions (with no changes).
- Click Next to accept Authentication Permissions (with no changes).
- Click Next to accept Self-Service Permissions (with no changes).
- Click Save to complete the creation of the new role.
- Go to Identity > Users > Manage Existing.
- Search for the amis-service account.
- Click on the context arrow next to the user ID and choose Administrative Roles > Assign More.
- Search for service-accountrole1.
- Place a check next to the role and click Assign Role.
Notes
- The service account should never be amis-bind, it's only used with AMIS directly and service account has to be a different one.
- You either create the administrative role name service-accountrole1 or service-accountrole2.
- You might need to restart tthe Tomcat service on the AMIS machine, after applying this change:
service tomcat-amis restart
