Running LifeCycle Manager in a non-secure mode

It is possible to run LifeCycle Manager in a non-secure mode which means that no validation towards an LDAP server is done. This action is not recommended for production environments, but can be useful in test and demo environments.

LDAP validation is enabled by default, but it can be disabled by setting the property ldap.validation in lcm.properties to false.

When LDAP validation is disabled, the only user who can log on to LifeCycle Manager is lcmdemo with lcmdemo as password. This user is granted all privileges and is considered a LifeCycle Manager administrator.
