Configuring user security

In IBM® FileNet® P8 environments, most of the work of configuring user security occurs before you install IBM eDiscovery Manager. The directory service administrator creates a group for eDiscovery users and populates that group with users who will need access to eDiscovery Manager and eDiscovery Analyzer. The eDiscovery administrator is an important member of this group. During the installation of eDiscovery Manager, the existence of the eDiscovery group is verified.

After eDiscovery Manager is installed, ensure that the eDiscovery administrators on secondary content servers have sufficient privileges to create and install AddOns. eDiscovery administrators must have write privileges on the object store.

If you need to configure user security on secondary content servers, in the Add Connection Information for a Content Server window, you must specify FileNet P8 Content Engine web addresses that use the WSI transport method. Because eDiscovery Analyzer supports only WSI connections, eDiscovery Manager must also use WSI connections. Do not specify FileNet P8 Content Engine web addresses that use IIOP connections.
