Builder role


Alasdair Nottingham (611610) | asked Apr 01 '09, 6:32 a.m.
Hi,

I would like to create a builder role that I can then put the user the build engine runs using into. This is so that id has only the authority it needs to run builds, and no more.

Is their already a role for this I can import from elsewhere, or is there documentation on what authority the build engine needs so I can create my own?

Thanks
Alasdair

In the Web Admin UI, under the User Management tab, you can click on each user name and bring up their profile. In their profile, there is a Client Access Licenses section where you can allow your user to have a Build System License. The description is as follows:
The Build System Client Access License is for assignment only to a user ID used by an automated Build System. This enables the devices in the Build System to have read access to all capabilities, and write access to all capabilities unless otherwise restricted by role-based process permissions. Build System user ID's are not counted as part of the server user limit.
The other license types for RTC are: Contributor, developer, CQ connector, and CC connector.

It is important to distinguish the "license type" assigned to a user
from the "role" assigned to a user. There is a small number of license
types that are defined by the RTC product and cannot be changed by a
customer. The association of a user to one or more licenses is
controlled/defined in the RTC license server. Each process area defines
a set of roles, and this set (and what a user in a given role can do) is
separately customizable in each process area.

Cheers,
Geoff
