Mapping Unwired Platform Logical Roles to Physical Roles

Unwired Platform requires that you map these default platform roles: SUP Administrator and SUP Domain Administrator. In a development environment, these mappings are automatic if the provider roles use the exact logical role names. If the development environment roles do not match, then you must manually map them.

Use Sybase Control Center to map these logical roles to the appropriate physical roles or groups in the underlying security provider. The mapping determines whether a platform or domain administrator has access privileges. The administration logical to physical role mapping is done in "default" domain for the "admin" security configuration.
  1. Open Sybase Control Center.
  2. In the left navigation pane, expand Domains.
  3. Expand the Default domain.
  4. Open the Security folder and click the Admin security configuration.
  5. Map roles to the security provider groups or roles:
    • If default roles exactly match the names in the security provider repository, select AUTO.
    • If the default role differ from those manually added to the repository, click the list adjacent to the logical role and choose Map Role. The Role Mappings dialog allows you to manually set logical and physical role mappings.Once saved, the state automatically changes to MAPPED.
  6. Assign domain administration access to users :
    1. Register the user by clicking the Security node and selecting the Domain Administrators tab, then clicking Assign.
    2. Assign the required domain administrator physical role to the user in the underlying security provider repository for the admin security configuration.
