Rational® ClearQuest® uses
a role-based access control (RBAC) model for enabling workspace
folder permissions.
Introduction to workspace folder permissions
Workspace folder permissions provide a high level of control over
the visibility and modification of the Public Queries folder
in the Rational ClearQuest workspace.
This is done by allowing Security Administrators and Public Folder Administrators
to assign specific permissions to user groups on specific folders.
Developing workspace folder permission policies
When you develop workspace folder permission policies for a Rational ClearQuest environment,
the most important considerations are who has authority to set policies for
the entire installation; who can set and change permissions on individual
folders; and what levels of access to set on different folders for different
groups of users.
