Jazz™ Team Server requires that WebSphere® Application Server administrative security and application security are enabled. Jazz Team Server uses the functions of WebSphere Application Server security to validate user IDs and passwords. In addition, WebSphere Application Server security is used to assign Jazz Team Server repository permissions to a particular user ID. This assignment can be done for individual users or groups of users, based on the facilities of the security provider. This mapping of user IDs to repository permissions is discussed further in Part 3: Installing the Jazz Team Server web archive file.
