Activating the Emergency User
Prerequisites
The AS Java must be able to access the database of the AS Java.
Context
In emergency situations, you can activate the emergency user SAP* to enable you to log on to applications, in particular the configuration tools, and change the configuration. Such situations include the following:
- You configured user management incorrectly and can no longer log on to any applications
- You configured the data source incorrectly and the SAP NetWeaver Application Server (AS) does not start
- All administrator users are locked
The SAP* user has full administrator authorizations. For security reasons, the SAP* user does not have a default password, so you must specify a password when you activate the user.
NOTE: Once you have activated the SAP* user, no other user can log in to the system.
Procedure
- Activate the SAP* user:
- Start the config tool for editing user management engine (UME) properties as described in Editing UME Properties .
- Set the following properties:
- Restart the AS Java.
The SAP* user is now activated. While it is activated, all other users are deactivated. You can only log on with the SAP* user. - Fix your configuration as required, logging on with the user ID SAP* and the password you specified.
- When you have fixed your configuration, deactivate the SAP* user again.
- Start the config tool for editing UME properties.
- Set the property ume.superadmin.activated to false.
- Restart the AS Java.
