2.5 Creating and Managing a Team Workspace Root Workspace

A Team Workspace Root workspace is designed to contain multiple team workspaces, so use this type of workspace if you want to create additional team workspaces as sub-workspaces to this workspace. When users with appropriate rights view this workspace, they can easily create a new team workspace by clicking the Add a Team Workspace button, as described in Creating a Highly Visible Team Workspace. The Add a Team Workspace button is not displayed in regular team workspaces.

You can control who has access to create workspaces in Team Workspace Root workspaces by modifying the access controls, as described in Section 4.0, Controlling User Access.

For more information on organizing team workspaces for a Teaming site, see Organizing Team Workspaces in the Novell Teaming 2.1 Administration Guide.

To create a Team Workspace Root workspace:

  1. Navigate to the location where you want to create the Team Workspace Root workspace.

  2. Create a regular team workspace, as described in Creating a Team Workspace inside of an Existing Team Workspace.

  3. Navigate to the workspace that you just created in Step 2.

  4. In the Workspace toolbar, click Manage > Configure.

    The Configure Default Settings page is displayed.

  5. In the Default View section, select Team Workspace Root.

  6. Click Apply > Close.
