ZIETrans administrative console roles
ZIETrans administrative console is bound to WebSphere® security. This means that when WebSphere® Application Server security is enabled, your system administrators must have proper authentication to perform ZIETrans administrative tasks. The security functions used by ZIETrans are based on the Java™ EE form-based authentication process. When WebSphere® Application Server security is enabled, ZIETrans administrative console operations are restricted based on the role defined for a user ID. There are three roles defined for use of the ZIETrans administrative console. Each role has different capabilities.
- ZIETransAdministrator
- This role has full administration capability, able to do all
of the following tasks:
- Manage license information
- Select the scope of management
- View active connections, connection pools, connection pool definitions, user lists, and logs
- Terminate active connections
- View log and trace files
- Set log and trace options
- View potentially sensitive data by seeing the display terminal, change the trace settings, terminate existing connections, and download trace files.
All Authenticated
users. - HATSOperator
- This role is equivalent to the ZIETransAdministrator role, but cannot access potentially sensitive data. A user with this role cannot enable display terminal tracing, nor download trace files.
- ZIETransMonitor
- This role only allows the user to view non-sensitive data, such as active connections, connection pools, user lists, and logs. A user with this role cannot change any settings, such as license management settings, log and trace file options, display terminal settings, nor download trace files.
For WebSphere® Application Server V6.x, ensure the All Authenticated option on the Map security roles to users/groups panel is checked for the appropriate ZIETrans role. For WebSphere® Application Server V7.x and V8.x, ensure the All Authenticated in Application Realm option is selected using the Map Special Subjects drop-down on the Map security roles to users/groups panel for the appropriate ZIETrans role.
