Created Settings to Override ControlPoint Default Security

By default, ControlPoint is security trimmed to enforce SharePoint permissions.  ControlPoint Application Administrators can, however, override these permissions to allow user groups that have been defined in the ControlPoint Configuration site to perform ControlPoint analyses and/or actions on site collections and sites for which they do not have management permissions.

You can use security overrides in conjunction with Customizing ControlPoint Menus to tailor your ControlPoint environment to best suit the needs of your organization.

NOTE:  These settings do not override a user's permissions for the SharePoint sites themselves.  (For example, it will not give a user permission to open a SharePoint site or make changes via SharePoint site settings pages if they have not been granted permissions to do so in SharePoint.  Nor will a user who does not have permissions for Central Administration be able to use ControlPoint menu items that directly invoke Central Administration pages.)

To add security override  to ControlPoint

NOTE:  Because the use of security overrides should involve careful consideration and planning, they are createable (hidden) settings.

1From the ControlPoint Configuration Settings Manager, click [Create] .

2Use the information in the following to determine the appropriate action to take

If you want to ...

Choose ...

allow members of one or more ControlPoint user groups to perform data analyses for any site collection or site in the farm

Override Security Trimming for Running Reports.

Security Overrrides REPORTS

allow members of one or more ControlPoint user groups to perform ControlPoint actions and analyses on any site collection/site in the farm

Override Security Trimming for All ControlPoint Operations.

Security Overrides ALL

CAUTION:  Because  implications of taking actions are much more significant than viewing data, it is recommended that ControlPoint Application Administrators use extreme care when configuring this setting.  (Remember that you can also customize ControlPoint menus to give groups of users access to a subset of actions.  See Guidelines for Creating Customized Menus for Different Groups of Users.)

3Navigate to the new setting and open it for editing.

4For New Value, enter the name of each ControlPoint group whose security trimming you want to override.

NOTE:  If you want to extend this privilege to more than one group, enter the group names in a comma-separated list (with no spaces between group names). If you want to extend it to all ControlPoint groups, enter ALL.

Security Overrides Value

Additional Created Settings

Because of potential environmental implications, the majority of "created" settings should be configured only under special circumstances and with guidance from Quest Support.

Hidden Settings List

Changing Trace Switch Logging Levels

ControlPoint contains a number of trace switches that control the type and level of detail that is captured in the ControlPoint Administration (xcAdmin) log. Quest Support may suggest that one or more of these be changed for diagnosis and troubleshooting purposes.

NOTE Trace switches are Advanced settings.

Valid values for all trace switches, listed from least to most detail, are:

·Disabled

·Error (the default)

·Warnings

·Info

·Verbose

Trace Log Valid Values

Note that as the logging level increases, the amount of detail is "additive." For example, if you select the logging level Info, then Errors and Warnings will also be included.

If you want to change the logging level  for...

Archiving SharePoint Audit Log Data

ControlPoint xcUtilities is a utility that includes functionality for moving SharePoint audit log data from content databases in your SharePoint farm to an external database, allowing you to free up space in content databases without losing this data.  For example, archiving would be valuable if your organization is subject to regulations that require certain types of audit data be retained.  The schema for the external database is provided, allowing you to report and analyze archived data using standard SQL-based tools.

If your organization is not subject to regulatory requirements and/or you simply want to purge SharePoint audit log data from content databases, use the ControlPoint Setting Number of Days to Keep Audit Records.  

By default, the process archives data from all Web applications.  You can, however, choose to include only Web applications that you specify (for example, only those that contain audit log data that is subject to regulatory requirements) using ControlPoint Configuration settings.
