Logging in to the M3 DMP Client application

Before you can log in to DMP Client, you must ensure that the DmpMT.ini configuration file generated during service installation is available. This file is created when the M3 DMP MT services are installed and is located in the MT services installer directory.

  1. Launch the M3 DMP Client application, but do not log in yet.
  2. From the menu, select Setup > Settings, and select the Servers tab.
  3. In DMP Server, click Load and locate the DmpMT.ini file.
  4. If the selected file is a valid configuration file, the Name (URL) field is automatically populated.
  5. Click OK to apply the configuration.
  6. To log in to the application, select Menu > Log in Server.
  7. In Login, specify this information:
    Name
    Specify the user name.
    Password
    Specify the password.
    URL
    The URL is pre-filled based on the configuration loaded in step 4.
  8. Click OK.
    After authentication, the system displays the Versions list screen or the Favorite Views default screen.
    Note: The M3 DMP application supports switching between different deployment configurations:
    • On-premises setup: The client, service, and databases are entirely on-premises.
    • Migrated (MT) setup: The client and service are configured for MT, but the database remains on-premises.
    • Multi-tenant (MT) setup: The client, service, and database architectures are all designed for MT.

    The M3 DMP application functions normally when switching to classic on-premises setup. This is achieved by using the appropriate URL format, such as net, net://, or net://<postfix>. All standard functionalities remain intact under the classic on-premises setup.

    The application also supports a smooth transition to a multi-tenant setup. In this configuration, the M3 DMP application and M3 DMP MT services behave as multi-tenant, with additional options for managing versions. You can create new empty versions, copy existing versions, load specific versions, and delete versions that are no longer required. This provides flexibility while maintaining compatibility with the multi-tenant structure.

    You can switch to multi-tenant (MT) setup by using URL formats: MT, MT://, or MT://<TenantID>.
