About Us
Postpone Security Trimming of SharePoint Hierarchy Until Site Collection is Expanded (PostponeSecurityTrim)
By default, the site collections to which a ControlPoint user has access are calculated or when the SharePoint Hierarchy or page is refreshed.
In an especially large SharePoint environment in which the user administers a large number of site collections within a Web application, the load-time may be significant. ControlPoint Application Administrators can, therefore, postpone security trimming until a Site Collection is expanded by changing the value of the ControlPoint Setting Do Not Security-Trim SharePont Hierarchy Until Site Collection Expansion (PostponeSecurityTrim) from false to true.
When this setting is true:
·All of the site collections within the SharePoint farm will display in the SharePoint Hierarchy, and
·security trimming will occur when a site collection is expanded; that is:
§none of the sites below the site collection will display in the hierarchy, and
§the ControlPoint right-click menu will be replaced with your browser-s right-click menu.
If a user attempts to perform an operation on a site collection for which they not have permissions before the site collection is expanded, a pop-up with following message displays when a ControlPoint operation is invoked:
You do not have permissions to run an action or report on the selected scope.
NOTE: Because all site collections will display in the SharePoint Hierarchy when this setting is enabled, it is recommended for use only with exceptionally large SharePoint environments where long loading time is an issue, and ideally, for which ControlPoint users are administrators for most (or all) of the site collections.
