Error description
After making a change to the access control configuration on one cluster member, the change is not picked up on any other cluster members at the point a user logs in to the UI. This means, for example, that if a user is added to a role, they will not immediately have access to the UI perspective for that role until another user performs an operation on that cluster member to trigger synchronization of the access control configuration.
Local fix
Problem summary
When changes have recently been made to the access control role mapping configuration for WSRR running in a cluster environment, the perspectives available to a user in the web UI might not be updated if they were affected by the changes. For example: A user belongs to the WSRRUser role and only has access to the 'General User' perspective. The user is then mapped to the 'Development' role, but when they next login to the web UI, they are still only shown the 'General User' perspective and are not given the option to select the 'Development' perspective.
Problem conclusion
When the user login occurs, the access control configuration is not refreshed from what is stored in the database. Therefore, if the role mapping change was made on cluster member 1, a login to cluster member 2 will not use the new role mapping. A code change has now been made so that a check is made to see if the access control configuration needs to be refreshed from the database when the user login occurs. The configuration is refreshed if necessary. This fix is targeted for inclusion in fix pack 4 for WSRR v7.0.
