This content
applies to version 4.0.3 or later. You
can control access to configurations in a configuration space by assigning
roles and operations to users in the Configuration
Management application
project area that corresponds to the configuration space that is referenced
by project areas in a lifecycle management product. If you do not
set these permissions, all users have all permissions for the configurations
in the configuration space.
Before you begin
- You should be familiar with project
areas, configuration spaces, snapshots, workspaces,
and change sets, which are described in Management of shared resources.
- You must be a member of either the JazzProjectAdmins group or
the JazzAdmins group.
- You must know the name of the configuration space that you want
to restrict access to.
About this task
The roles and operations that you assign in the
Configuration
Management application
complement, but do not replace, the permissions that are assigned
in the lifecycle management product. Permissions for lifecycle management
products vary; see the administration pages or the online help for
that product.
Note: You can create custom roles and assign operations
as required by your project. A team member can be assigned multiple
roles.
Procedure

Management application,
open the project area with the same name as the configuration space:

in a web browser, go to https://fully_qualified_host_name:9443/jts/admin.
- On the Application Administration page, in the Configuration
Management (/vvc) section, click Application.
- Click .
- Click the name of the project area with the same name

change sets) in the configuration space.
