If the IBM®
InfoSphere® Information Server internal
user registry is used, you can create user groups and assign security
settings and roles to the groups. All users that belong to a group
automatically inherit the security settings and roles that are assigned
to the group.
Before you begin
- You must have IBM InfoSphere Information Analyzer or InfoSphere Information Services Director installed.
- You must have Administrator authority.
Procedure
- In the IBM InfoSphere Information Server console,
on the Home navigator menu, select .
- On the Groups workspace, click New
Group on the Tasks pane.
- Specify information about the group. The ID and
the Group Name fields are required.
- In the Suite pane, specify the rights
for the group.
- In the Suite Component pane, select
whether the group has any suite component roles. You must
add at least one suite component role for each suite component that
you want the group of users to access. For example, if you are creating
a group that will access IBM InfoSphere Information Analyzer,
you must assign the Information Analyzer Project Administrator, Data
Administrator, or User role.
- Optional: In the Users pane,
click Browse to add users to the group.
- In the Add Users window, select
the user that you want to add to the group.
- Click Add.
- Click OK to close the window.
- Click .
What to do next
After you create groups, you can add the groups to new or
existing projects.
