How to get SAP UserDatabase (import) to RSA AM?

[JashUpadhyay]

Hi Team,

I need to Integrate SAP netweaver application with RSA SecurID. To do so I found a guide which has step wise integration. My only concern here is: How to import users which are present naively in the SAP using oracle as a platform be imported in RSA authentication manager? . I need detailed steps to do so.

Hi Jash,

I am not very familiar with SAP Netweaver, but I noticed there are a number of documents on-line about connecting your Netweaver with Active Directory or other LDAP identity sources. This is the approach I would recommend you investigate.

It appears it should be possible for SAP Netweaver and RSA Authentication Manager to both be configured to find users in a common LDAP repository. You would be maintaining your users in the LDAP directory (or what Authentication Manager calls an "Identity Source"). This may seem like more work initially, but I think you'll find that to be much more maintainable in the long-run. Otherwise, you'll be constantly having to maintain both the SAP and AM databases with any new users that need to be added or obsolete users that need to be removed.

If having these be separate databases if still a requirement, I would take a look at Authentication Manager Bulk Administration (AMBA) (DOC-46312). This tool can be used to perform automated "Add User" operations on very large numbers of users. It uses a file with comma-separated-variables (CSV) to provide the information on the users to be managed.
