Changing the Owner of an Object
The owner of an object is displayed on the Set Job page.
If you are a portal administrator, you can change the owner.
You might want to change object owner for several reasons:
- If the owner is deleted from the portal, you must assign an existing
portal user as the object owner before you can run the job.
- When a job runs, it might require access to portal objects that
the current owner does not have access to. For example, a content
crawler needs access to the folders into which it imports content.
You might need to change the owner to provide the proper access.
- Open the object's editor
by creating a new object or editing an existing object.
- Click the Set Job page.
- To change the owner, click Change Owner; then, in the Choose User dialog box, choose the user whom you want
to make the object owner and click OK.
Note: If you are not a portal administrator, you see the name
of the owner, but you cannot change it.
