Adding an Administrator User
A user has administrator privileges if he or she belongs to the Administrators group or to any other group added to the Allow List of the Administrators ACL. To determine if a user has administrator privileges, the server authenticates the user to obtain his or her user name. (For information about how the server determines the user name, see Customizing Authentication Using JAAS.) After determining the user name, the server determines if the user belongs to a group that is allowed and does not belong to any group that is denied access by the Administrators ACL. If so, the server allows access to the Integration Server Administrator.
To grant administrator privileges to a user, you must assign that user to the Administrators group or to a group you have added to the Allow list of the Administrators ACL. In addition, you must make sure the user is not a member of a group that is denied access by the Administrators ACL.
Important: The user to whom you want to grant administrative privileges must already have a user account on the Integration Server. If the user does not already have a user account, create one before you perform the following steps.
* To grant administrative privileges to a user
1. Open the Integration Server Administrator if it is not already open.
2. In the Security menu of the Navigation panel, click User Management.
Under Local User Management, the Groups area of the screen (on the right) contains two lists. Users in this Group is a list of users currently in the selected group. Remaining Users is a list of users not currently in the selected group.
3. In the Groups area of the screen, in the Select group list, select Administrators.
4. In the Remaining Users list, select (highlight) the user or users to whom you want to grant administrator privileges.
To select additional users without deselecting currently selected users, press the CTRL key while you click on the users you want to select. To deselect a user, press the CTRL key while you click the currently selected entry.
5. After you have selected all the users you want to add to the group, click move left icon. The server moves the selected users to the Users in this Group list.
6. Click Save Changes.
