View and modify the access rights that users and user groups have
for resources. Access rights are determined by role assignments.
Roles
Users and user groups may be assigned different roles for each
resource.
Resources
Resource types are broad categories that contain resource instances.
Resource instances are specific resources, such as a single portlet or page.
Each resource instance belongs to only one resource type. For example, the
resource instance Market News Page would belong to the Page resource type.
Virtual resources are a unique resource type. Virtual resources contain the
parent resources for all other WebSphere Portal resources.
Viewing role assignments
Determine whether roles are implicitly assigned via group membership,
inherited via the resource hierarchy, or explicitly assigned.
Searching
Use the search feature to search the portlet for portal
resources by selecting the type of search and the appropriate search
parameters. This way you can limit the number of portal resources
listed in the portlet.
Configuring the User and Group Permissions portlet
You can modify the search results of this portlet by changing the
maximum number of items that a search retrieves and by changing the number
of items that display on a page.
