Adding Access Privileges to a Cluster

You can add access privileges to all of the locations in a cluster simultaneously. This prevents you from having to edit the access privileges of the rules, sequences, and projects in each location of the cluster individually.

*  To add access privileges to a cluster:

  1. Launch the Administration Console by selecting Start > Programs > Hyperion > Administration Services > Start Administration Services Console.

  2. In the Analytic Administration Services Login dialog box, enter the Administration Services server name and your user name and password to log on to Administration Services. Then click OK.

  3. In the left navigation frame of Administration Services, expand the Business Rules node. Then expand the Administration node.

  4. Expand the Clusters node.

  5. Under the Clusters node, right-click the cluster for which you want to assign access privileges and select Open.

    The Cluster Editor is displayed. The Locations tab lists the locations in the cluster. The Access Privileges tab lists the access privileges for the cluster.

  6. Select the Access Privileges tab and click Add Access Privileges.

    The Add Location Access Privileges dialog box is displayed.

  7. In the Add Access Privileges dialog box, select the rules and projects whose access privileges you want to assign to the cluster. Then click OK.

    The Add Privilege dialog box is displayed.

  8. In the Add Privilege dialog box, do the following:

    1. From the Privilege drop-down list, select the type of privilege you want to grant:

      • Validate or launch - enables a users or users you specify to validate and launch the business rules and sequences in each of the database locations in the cluster.

      • Cannot validate or launch - prevents the user or users you specify from validating or launching the business rules or sequences in each of the database locations in the cluster.

    2. In the Available area, select users and/or groups of users for whom you want to add this access privilege. (You can select multiple users and groups using Shift + Click.) Then use the arrow keys to move users and groups among the Selected and Available areas of the dialog box. When you move users and groups to the Selected area of the dialog box, these users and groups have the access privilege you assigned.

      Note:

      The users and groups that are listed in the Available area are provisioned for use in Business Rules using the Oracle's Hyperion® Shared Services User Management Console. Provisioning is the process of assigning roles and access privileges to users and groups for Business Rules. For more information about provisioning users for use in Oracle's Hyperion® Business Rules, see the Hyperion EPM System Security Administration Guide. If new users are provisioned after the Administration Services server is started, you may need to refresh the list of users on the Users tab in the Available area of the Add Privilege dialog box. To refresh the list of users on the Users tab, right-click Administration, and select Refresh User List.

    3. Click OK to save the access privilege and return to the Access Privileges tab.

  9. Click Save to save the changes to the access privileges of the cluster.
