An optimal control problem subject to an elliptic obstacle problem is studied. We obtain a numerical approximation of this problem by discretising the PDE obtained via a Moreau–Yosida type penalisation. For the resulting discrete control problem we provide a condition that allows to decide whether a solution of the necessary first order conditions is a global minimum. In addition we show that the corresponding result can be transferred to the limit problem provided that the above condition holds uniformly in the penalisation and discretisation parameters. Numerical examples with unique global solutions are presented.
