ControlPoint 8.8.1 - Administration Guide

Preventing Members of the Business Administrators Group from Emailing Scheduled Analyses (BAPreventScheduledEmail)

By default, all ControlPoint users have the option of emailing results of scheduled analyses to the recipients of their choice.

ControlPoint Application Administrators can, however, hide this option from members of the Business Administrators group (for example, to limit the number of extremely large files that need to be handled by the email server) by changing the Value of the ControlPoint Configuration Setting BAPreventScheduleEmail from False to True.

Show Full Hierarchy of Business Admin Sites

By default, if a member of the ControlPoint Business Administrators group has permissions to manage a subsite at any level below a site collection's root site but does not have permissions to manage its parent, the subsite does not display in the ControlPoint SharePoint Hierarchy or object pickers.  

The subsite will, however, be included in a ControlPoint operation if it is within the scope of the selection.

ControlPoint Application Administrators can, however allow these sites to display by changing the Value of the ControlPoint Configuration Setting Show Full Hierarchy of Business Admin Sites from false to true.

Note that any parent sites within the hierarchy that the Business Administrator does not have permissions to manage will appear disabled.  

NOTE:  Depending on the number of sites and depth of the hierarchy, sites may take longer to load when the hierarchy is expanded if Show Full Hierarchy of Business Admin Sites is set to true.

Changing Default Settings for ControlPoint User Groups

These configuration settings display in the ControlPoint Settings list under the category ControlPoint Groups.

Show All Site Collections to Farm Admins (SUPERADMIN)

By default, icons for site collections to which SharePoint farm administrators do not have access appear grayed out in the ControlPoint SharePoint Hierarchy.  When an icon is grayed out, farm administrators cannot access the site collection/site (or any child objects to which they do not have access) from within ControlPoint.  They can, however, use the ControlPoint Set Site Collection Properties feature to add themselves as site collection administrators.  

If the SharePoint farm includes site collections that contain highly sensitive or confidential data that should remain "locked down" or if corporate policy dictates that farm administrators should not see sites to which they do not have access, ControlPoint Application Administrators can change the Value of the ControlPoint Setting Show All Site Collections to Farm Admins from True to False so that site collections to which farm administrators do not have access are not displayed in the SharePoint Hierarchy.
