Checking Sequence Order for Asset Profiles
Pre-requisites:
To check the sequence order of asset profiles through the CentraSite Command Line Interface, you must have the CentraSite Administrator role.
In the CentraSite Control, the sequence number plays a vital role in the profile display order and the associated instance-level profile permissions. In general, the sequence numbers assigned to the predefined profiles and computed profiles are odd numbers and even numbers are assigned to the user-defined profiles. But, some predefined profiles are designated with an even sequence number.
When a user creates a new profile, consider the system assigns an even sequence number that matches with one of the predefined profiles. When the user sets the profile-level permissions for the new profile, the same permissions are also assigned to the predefined profile that has the same even sequence number within the asset type. As a result, the user might get permissions to more profiles than intended.
CentraSite provides a Java tool named FixProfileSequenceNumber.jar for this purpose.
To check the sequence order of asset profiles
Run the Java tool FixProfileSequenceNumber.jar. The syntax is of the format: C:\SoftwareAG\CentraSite\utilities>CentraSiteToolbox.cmd FixProfileSequenceNumber.jar <CentraSite URL> <admin user id> <password>
The input parameters are:
Parameter | Description |
CentraSite URL | The URL of the CentraSite registry. For example, http://localhost:53307/CentraSite/CentraSite. |
admin user id | The user ID of a registered CentraSite user who has the CentraSite Administrator role. For example, Administrator. |
password | The password for the CentraSite user identified by the parameter admin user id. |
Example (all in one line):
C:\SoftwareAG\CentraSite\utilities>CentraSiteToolbox.cmd FixProfileSequenceNumber.jar http://localhost:53307/CentraSite/CentraSite Administrator manage
