Use the member fixer tool with IBM Workplace Web Content Management

Use the member fixer tool to check whether any Member Manager users or groups referenced in IBM® Workplace Web Content Management™ items have been renamed or deleted from Member Manager.

The member fixer tool will not work if there are any locked items in a Web content library. Before running the member fixer tool, an administrator must unlock any locked items. See Working with locked and draft items for further information.

If you have a large number of items, you may need to increase the session timeout setting of your server. This is changed using the WebSphere Application Server administration console. Go to Application Servers > WebSphere_Portal > Container Settings > Web Container Settings > Session Management. See the WebSphere Application Server information center for more information.

  1. Log in to the portal as an administrator.

  2. To view a report of Member Manager users or groups referenced in Web Content Management items, open the member fixer tool. Open the following URL in the browser:

    http://hostname.yourco.com:port_number/wps/wcm/connect ?MOD=MemberFixer&library=libraryname

  3. If there have been changes to Member Manager users and groups, update the items that reference them. Open the following URL in the browser:

    http://hostname.yourco.com:port_number/wps/wcm/connect ?MOD=MemberFixer&library=libraryname&fix=true

  4. If the member fixer tool indicates that certain mismatched member conditions exist, enter the specified URL to correct the conditions.

    Condition description URL to correct condition
    Nonexistent users or groups have alternate distinguished names (DNs) available. To update the items that reference the nonexistent users or groups:

    http://hostname.yourco.com:
    port_number/wps/wcm/connect ?MOD=MemberFixer&library=libraryname &fix=true&alt_dn=update
    To remove the members that reference the users or groups:

    http://hostname.yourco.com:
    port_number/wps/wcm/connect ?MOD=MemberFixer&library=libraryname &fix=true&alt_dn=remove
    Users or groups have been found with mismatched external IDs in Member Manager. To update the external IDs in Member Manager with correct external IDs:

    http://hostname.yourco.com:
    port_number/wps/wcm/connect ?MOD=MemberFixer&library=libraryname &fix=true&mismatched_id=update
    To remove those users and groups with mismatched external IDs:

    http://hostname.yourco.com:
    port_number/wps/wcm/connect ?MOD=MemberFixer&library=libraryname &fix=true&mismatched_id=remove

    These URL options can be combined when the conditions occur at the same time. For example, if alternate DNs are available for nonexistent users and groups and there are mismatched external IDs in Member Manager, you might use the following URL:

    http://hostname.yourco.com:port_number/wps/wcm/connect ?MOD=MemberFixer&library=libraryname &fix=true&alt_dn=update&mismatched_id=update
