Add role definition

A role definition defines who is authorized to perform specific tasks and/or individual operations in the client. A role usually corresponds to a job function or responsibility and consists of a collection of tasks that a user must be authorized to perform to do their job function.

4
Open the Definition tab to add a role, task or operation to this role:

Add application group

Application groups allow you an alternate way of assigning users to roles. An application group is a feature of Windows Authorization Manager (AzMan) where you can define a group of users without having to go through your domain administrator to add a new group to Active Directory.

1
Open the Application User Interface Authorization page.
2
Expand Add and click Add Application Group.
3
On the Group tab of the Authorizations: Application Group dialog, enter the following information:
•
Name: Enter a name for the application group
•
Description: Enter a brief description for the application group
Select one of the following methods which is to be used to define a group of users:
•
Basic (default)
•
LDAP Query
* 
NOTE: Basic groups are a lot like Active Directory groups; however you can define both included and excluded members. LDAP query groups allow you to define an LDAP query to dynamically create a group of users who are similar. Refer to the Windows Authorization Manager documentation for more information on basic and LDAP query groups.
4
Open the Members tab and add the users and groups that are to be members of this application group.
•
To add an application group, click Add Application Group and select an application group from the Authorizations: Application Groups dialog.
•
To add a user or group, click Add User or Group, which will display the Select Active Directory Objects dialog. Use the Browse page or Search page to locate and select the user(s) and/or group(s) to be added.
5
Optionally, open the Non-Members tab and add the users and groups that are to be excluded from this application group.
•
To add an application group, click Add Application Group and select an application group from the Authorizations: Application Groups dialog.
•
To add a user or group, click Add User or Group, which will display the Select Active Directory Objects dialog. Use the Browse page or Search page to locate and select the user(s) and/or groups to add.
6
Click OK to save your new role definition and close the Authorizations: Role dialog.

When the selected members now try to define Active Directory protection they will be restricted to defining protection for the selected domain or organizational unit.
