Web-center content Administration link

Question

Hi,
Can somebody tell me how to make a normal OID user a admin so that he will be able to see "Administration" link in webcenter content server console (/cs).
The user base is OVD(OID and AD). I have follow the steps where I made a group in OID named as "WC_Admin" and assigned the Admin role within the WebLogic domain security realm to the "WC_admin" as explained in section 15.2.2.2  http://docs.oracle.com/cd/E25178_01/core.1111/e12037/oam.htm#BEJCECIC
The member of group WC_admin not able to see the "Administration" link in webcenter content server console (/cs)...is this default behavior or I need to do something else?
Rgds,

Hi ,
So the assumption was correct as in the role on AD itself is the root cause .
Just because a group is named WC_Admin on AD does not give it admin privileges.  If you want to have some users with admin role then create a credential map on UCM and provide this map :
wc_admin , admin
Then add the map name to <domain_home>/ucm/cs/data/providers/jpsuserprovider/provider.hda file :
ProviderCredentialsMap=<CredentialMapName>
Restart the server and then users who are under wc_admin group on AD post-login will be given admin role on ucm and Administration link will be displayed .
Hope this helps .
