Correct Log out option when using TM1 with server in URL parameter with SSO enabled

CustomCAMLogoutUrl is a parameter that is used only with Siteminder:

From https://www.ibm.com/docs/en/planning-analytics/2.0.0?topic=mtwcp-tm1-web-configuration-parameters :

"

CustomCAMLogoutUrl Specifies the URL of a dedicated Logout page for CA SiteMinder when TM1 Server is configured to use CAM security (mode 4 or 5). This Logout page must be accessed on logout so that the SiteMinder session cookie can be invalidated.

When a user clicks Logoff in TM1 Web, the CAM logout occurs first. Then, theSiteMinder Logout page is called.

"


So there is nothing we can achieve by using this parameter, since Siteminder is not used.


It appears that the normal behaviour of TM1 Web is as follows: after clicking "Logout", the corresponding TM1 server thread is closed, when TM1 Web comes back to the initial page that was used to connect.

That is why it "seems" to work when the initial connection was done through http://careens.castle.fyre.ibm.com:9511/tm1web

And that is also why it behaves like this when the tm1server parameter is used in the URL(http://careens.castle.fyre.ibm.com:9511/tm1web/?tm1server=Planning%20Sample%20CAM). In fact the issue is caused by SSO that automatically reconnects you.

    Let me clarify the enhancement request.
    Alternative title: Improve logout behavior in TM1 Web, add option to redirect to a specific page instead of the initial page.
    Alternate description: when we connect to TM1 Web by using the "tm1server" parameter in the URL, and if SSO (Single Sign-On) is configured, then the "logout" menu in TM1 Web does send us back to the initial URL, which contains the "tm1server"parameter, and since SSO is active, we are automatically connected again.
    We need a new parameter in tm1web_config.xml (other than CustomCAMLogoutURL, which is designed for use with Siteminder only).
    Either a CustomLogoutURL where we can specify another URL.
    OR an "IgnoreTm1ServerInLogoutURL" parameter in order to remove the tm1server parameter and get to the classic TM1 Web home page
