Updating authorizations
This option is only available for authorizations using system groups based on a collection. It enables the
contents of a system group to be updated to the current contents of its source collection. All authorizations
using this system group (collection) are updated.
To update an authorization:
1. Select Options
→Security→Users and Authorizations→Authorizations, select an authorization
based on a system group, and then click Update. The Update Authorizations section appears.
2. In the Show dropdown list, select changes, current contents, or updated contents.
•
changes Describes the specific changes that occur to the system group if updated. Systems to
Add shows new systems that will be added to the system group and for all authorizations based
on the system group. Systems to Remove shows current systems that will be removed from the
system and from all authorizations using the system group. Systems Unchanged shows a list of
systems that are unaffected by the update. They remain unchanged in the system group and all
authorizations based on the system group.
•
current contents Shows the current contents of the system group.
•
updated contents Shows what the contents of the system group will be after updating. This option
applies to authorizations based on this system group.
3. Click Update Contents to update the authorization, or click Cancel to cancel the update.
Command line interface
Users with full configuration rights can use mxngroup to update system groups from the command line
interface (CLI). However, if there are edits to the system group from the CLI, there is no affect on the source
collection.
See “Using command line interface commands” for information on accessing the manpage.
