Applying security sets to a User Group and Realm

You apply a security set to groups and realms, thereby enabling it to control configuration security.

About this task

Only one security set per realm is supported. If you apply more than one security set to a device, you will receive a warning about having an empty configuration.

Procedure

  1. As a Netcool Configuration Manager system administrator, log into the Account Management page.
  2. Select the user group you would like to apply the security set to.
  3. Navigate to the Security tab, and select a realm from the Realm dropdown list.
  4. Choose a security set and command filter, then click Apply.
    The security set is displayed in a table under the headings 'realm', 'resource', and 'resource type'.
  5. Click Save.
    A locked padlock icon in the table next to a security set indicates that it has been saved to a group.

What to do next

The security set is now submitted as a unit of work (UOW) and will run when scheduled, as long as the proper approvals are granted. The number of approvals required for the UOW depends on the group policy.
