• Under Authentication Stack Configuration, do +not +select Use BasicPassword fallback.  

*Deploying the Duet Add-On  *

1.   Connecting User Management Engine to the SAP System User Store

Note: If the users IDs in the SAP system are not the same as the user IDs in the Active Directory server, you must map the users using the user mapping tool.

 2. You must obtain the ID of an existing system user in SAP system, and define administrator rights for it in the User Management Engine (UME) in the Duet Add-On host.  

<u>Deploying the Duet Add-On Components:</u> 

1. Double-click sapinst.exe, in the following path to start SAPInst: …\SAPINST\Java\NT\I386

 !https://weblogs.sdn.sap.com/weblogs/images/251818322/duetaddon1.JPG|height=153|alt=image|width=370|s...

Select this option to deploy the Duet Add-On components in the SAP system landscape.

Note: Although you can install the Duet Add-On components in the same host as the Duet server, we recommend that you deploy the Duet Add-On components in a separate host.    

2. Select Duet Add-On, and choose Next. The Specify Details of the Duet Add-On Host screen displays

Note: If users do not have the same user ID in Windows and SAP, you must configure user mapping data in the Duet Server environment before activating Role Synchronization.

When you republish the metadata for a business application, use Copy Role Assignments to AzMan. Doing so copies the assigned roles from the Duet server host to the Authorization Manager (AzMan), in the Duet Metadata host
