Table 2-2 iManager connection modes

Mode

Description

Unrestricted

All roles and tasks that are in the file system on the Web server are displayed to all users regardless of whether the user has sufficient rights to use them. This is the mode used when the iManager SDK is first run.

Assigned

Users see only the roles to which they have been assigned. To enable connections in this mode, you must configure set up RBS, and assign users to roles. For information, see Setting Up Role-Based Services.

Collection Owner

Users see the roles and tasks that are installed into any collections of which they are the owner. To enable connections in this mode, you must follow the same procedure as for Assigned mode.
