"Google Workspace services are managed by your administrator" - google-workspace

Going to https://workspace.google.com/dashboard > Logging in with my admin account > See msg "Google Workspace services are managed by your administrator", but I am the administrator
Clearing cookies cache/incognito did not help

That is expected. I am a Super Admin of my organization and it is basically a default message that you can actually add a message below with a description, it would always give you that alert:
Just for reference of my account as Super Admin and the section where you can add the other message:

Assign service account to Group Admin role in Workspaces (GSuite)

I'm attempting to assign a service account created in a project to the Group Admin role in Workspaces (GSuite) as part of an experiment to set up IAM automation in Terraform.
I'm essentially following this support guide here: https://support.google.com/a/answer/9807615#zippy=%2Cassign-a-role-to-a-service-account
Once I add the service account to be granted Group Admin, pressing "Assign Role" appears to do nothing. The button visually hovers but no action takes place after clicking it. My only option is to back out and discard the request.
I am signed in as a Super Admin. I've also tried Firefox, Safari, and Chrome hoping it was just a UI bug. I contacted Workspace support and while they were extremely helpful they were not able to find any issue on their end or point me in any direction.
I have also tried assigning a dummy user via the 'Assign User' page and I get the same issue. The button/form just doesn't seem to react or produce any error messages.
Is there something I could be missing in my Org setup?
So considering the UI is broken for me, I ended up using the API Explorer to assign the service account to the Group Admin role in Workspaces (GSuite)
Requirements:
Service Account unique ID, found by navigating to your service account from IAM in the console.
Customer ID, this is the customer ID of your Organisation and can be found in Account Settings in Workspaces or running the command:
$ gcloud organizations list
The customer ID is listed under DIRECTORY_CUSTOMER_ID.
You also need to find the roleID of your Group Admin role, I did this via the API Explorer again, requires your Customer ID
https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/directory/reference/rest/v1/roles/list
Send a request to that and then check the response for:
"roleId": "XXXXXXXXXXXXXXX",
"roleName": "_GROUPS_ADMIN_ROLE",
You then need to use API Explorer to insert your service account using the above details
https://developers.google.com/admin-sdk/directory/reference/rest/v1/roleAssignments/insert
Request body:
{
"assignedTo": "XXXXXXXXXXX",
"roleId": "XXXXXXXXXXX",
"scopeType": "CUSTOMER"
}
Your service account should now be a Group Admin in Workspaces (GSuite)

Create/Access a ClearCase view (Snapshot or Dynamic) without local admin privileges

In our current environment all the users who would like to access ClearCase will require local administrative rights and i'm looking into the options to remove the local admin privs constraint so that all the users should be able to access if they are part of clearcase domain groups like CCUsers.
Local admin privilege should only be required for installing ClearCase, especially when it comes to the MVFS (MultiView FileSystem) part.
But it is also used for launching ClearCase services. Without a privilege elevation, you would see:
C:\>net start albd
System error 5 has occurred.
Access is denied.
From Windows Services
Unable to open service Albd for writing on Local Computer
Error 5: Access is denied.
First, check if you can set those services as "Automatic": they should be started during Windows Startup, even if the user is not an administrator.
This thread recommends:
Click on Atria Location Broker service and select Properties.
On the General tab, "Startup type" should be "Automatic".
On the Log On tab, select the radio button to Log on as "This account" and enter the ALBD user account and password that you should have already setup (e.g. your-domain\clearcase_albd). If you do this properly, the Atria Location Broker service should start automatically for any user.

No cloudant DB credentials for bluemix dedicated

I have created a cloudant DB in bluemix dedicated. But it didn't give me credentials. It provides me with a link to launch the admin portal, which works fine. But clearly not very useful without credentials to use with code...
You should bind the service to an application. Doing that you will be able to see the credentials in the VCAP_SERVICES environment variable. You can find its value within the application dashboard, clicking on "Environment Variables" on the left.
You will also find the credentials clicking on the "Service Credentials" button that you can find on the service instance panel (again in the application dashboard).
Your dedicated environment may look a bit different that the public Bluemix dashboard, but when I click on the tile that shows my cloudant service, it takes me to a page with a menu on the left with the option "Service Credentials" once I choose that the window shows a button to "Add Credentials".

Lost access to websphere admin console

I'm kind of new with websphere. I was following an internal guide for setting up one of our company apps in websphere, but I changed one parameter in the admin console and after restarting the server, we cannot access with the administration console.
I checked the first option, when before the second one was, with user admin, and password admin also. Now, because It says "Server identity generated automatically" I have no idea what combination of user and password I need to enter in the administration console..
The administration console I'm referring to is the one located in server:port/ibm/console.
Thanks, this is really a serious problem for me, I would really appreciate any help I can get...
You should still be able to use whatever password you were using for admin user before making the change. Server user id is not used for restricting access to administrative console (see What is security property 'Server user identity' used for in Websphere Application Server?).
Nonetheless, since you can't access admin console at the moment (I'm assuming you mean that admin colsole login page shows up but you can't get admin user authenticated due to wrong password), first thing I'd suggest is turning of global security, so that you can use admin console to fix your settings and re-enable security. Once security is turned off, you won't be asked for a password during admin console login. Changing security settings in WebSphere Application Server with wsadmin technote gives step by step instructions.
If you are not sure about what password you have used for admin user, you must reset the password in the user repository you have configured (for example if you've configured LDAP, you must reset password at LDAP), before enabling security. If you are using a federated repository (this is default if you've not changed it), most probably admin user resides in file based repository, which is the first member of federated repository. In this case, you can just follow steps at How to reset the administrator's password in the file registry technote to reset your password. Otherwise you can try alternative documented at Updating your WAS administrator password (the link is from Lotus documentation but still is applicable).
Given that you have the command line 'xmlstarlet' in your terminal and,
WAS_HOME = Is your Websphere root location
PROFILENAME = IS your
profile's name
CELLNAME = Is your cell's name
Then,
xmlstarlet edit --update "/security:Security[#enabled='true']/#enabled" --value "false" $WAS_HOME/profiles/$PROFILENAME/config/cells/$CELLNAME/security.xml > /tmp/security.xml
cp /tmp/security.xml $WAS_HOME/profiles/$PROFILENAME/config/cells/$CELLNAME/security.xml
Summary: You are simply editing the correct security.xml file by changing the enabled="true" attribute to enabled="false" programmatically using xmlstarlet. Note that sed,awk,ed and other GNU tools lack the necessary ability to properly deal with the nested tree structure of XML.

SQL Server 2008 SSRS Home page error

I created a basic report in BI using Report Wizard and tried to publish it.
This is the error I get -
Error 1 The permissions granted to user 'xx-PC\xx' are insufficient
for performing this operation. 0 0
On the URL ../Reports/Pages/Folder.aspx I get this error
User 'xx-PC\xx' does not have required permissions. Verify that
sufficient permissions have been granted and Windows User Account
Control (UAC) restrictions have been addressed.
What am I doing wrong?
For this issue you need to add your account into ReportServer directory. Please follow following steps to solve this issue -
Go to the report server url (localhost/Reports)
Click on 'Folder Settings' button
Click on 'New Role Asignment'
Add your 'Group or user name' (Domain name with ID e.g. ZA\sg677888) and select the all checkbox
Click Ok
Hope this helps you !!!
I got these error message when browsing the server with NETBIOS name only. Use fully qualified domain name like myreportingserver.mycompany.com
