Package properties: Role Mapping

These settings map role names used in EJB components to role names that exist in EAServer Manager.

StepsMapping a J2EE role to an EAServer role

  1. If necessary, define a new EAServer role as described in “Configuring EAServer roles” in the EAServer Security Administration and Programming Guide for instructions.

  2. Select the Role Mapping tab from the Web application properties window.

  3. Click Add. Double-click the J2EE role and enter a name. You can also enter a description for the role in the provided field.

  4. Select an EAServer role from the drop-down list. This is the role from which the J2EE role inherits its permissions and members.
