Mapping RunAs roles to users collection

Use this page to map RunAs roles to users. This panel enables you to specify application-specific privileges for individual users to run specific tasks using another administrative role.

To view this administrative console page, complete the following steps:
  1. Click Applications > Enterprise applications > application_name.
  2. Under Additional properties, click Map RunAs roles to users.

The enterprise beans that you install contain predefined RunAs roles. RunAs roles are used by enterprise beans that need to run as a particular role for recognition while interacting with another enterprise bean.

Username

Specifies a user name for the RunAs role user.

This user already maps to the role specified in the Mapping users and groups to roles panel. You can map the user to its appropriate role by either mapping the user to that role directly or mapping a group that contains the user to that role. After you specify the user name and password for the user and select a RunAs role, click Apply.

Data type: String
Password

Specifies the password for the RunAs user.

Data type: String
Role

Specifies administrative RunAs roles.

A number of administrative roles are defined to provide degrees of authority needed to perform certain WebSphere administrative functions from either the Web-based administrative console or the system management scripting interface. The authorization policy is only enforced when global security is enabled. These administrative roles are defined during the application assembly stage. For more information on the assembly tools supported by WebSphere Application Server, see "Assembly tools".

User name

Specifies the user that is assigned to each RunAs role. The user corresponds to the RunAs role that is listed in the Role column.

The users in this column have the privileges assigned to the role for the specific enterprise application.
