You can edit existing ACLs rolemaps in a ClearCase VOB.
Before you begin
If you are using a Web view, you must connect to the CCRC
WAN server to edit an existing ACLs rolemap.
About this task
You create rolemaps in conjunction with policies. The intent
is that you can define a small number of policies that determine ‘how'
you apply permissions to objects. You then define a number of rolemaps
for each policy describing ‘who' takes on the roles in the policy.
By separating the ‘how' and the ‘who', you should be able to reuse
your policies multiple times and reduce the complexity of your security
administration.
Note: Rolemap modifications will affect containers
on disk for all elements that are using the rolemap for ACL information.
This may take a long time to execute if a large number of elements
are protected by the rolemap. In a replicated environment with preserving
replicas, importing an oplog with a rolemap modification will modify
the containers on disk, and may also take a long time to execute.
