document OOTB acl's, groups, teams and roles

[sdrzewiczewski]

This is in one of the admin guides either business or system under templates.

It's actually a whole lot more complex - because they are "there" as the result of creating Products, Libraries and Products from various templates as well as being there prior to creating any of these. It really becomes more a matter of describing in detail what is in each of these templates.

On top of this, some of the templates include configurations just to show what can be done and are not intended for any real business use (ref the discussion about the "Design" template, which includes state based versioning with it's own LC for WTParts and EPMDoc's, but standard Harvard series Versioning and LC for WTDocs).

But - A lot of this is trumped by using ACL's that are tied to the pseudo-group TeamMembers, which goes across all Roles except Guest and Manager, and by some ACL's that are at Site or Org level.

Go to a library you want to evaluate.

Save that library as a Library Template.

Export that Library Template to XML.

Read the XML.

In general, once you get to know the formate of the resulting XML, you can
parse through the exported Library Template XML to figure out what a
library does and how it does it.

I have an SQL report for this that you can run in Toad.

If you are looking to dive into the ACL portion I would do that first, get a good handle on what most of those settings mean and then you'll understand pretty quick how the existing templates are setup. Once you understand the general concept of the ACL's and some of the object names, its pretty easy to sort by principal and see what is going on in there.

Hi All,

You can find the xml files with all details in /ptc/Windchill/load (This is configured in properties and the path could be diferent)

You can read the templates for context of PDM, project, library, ....

By default, ACLs are created but you can add more with the template used to created the object.

We need to created a context (library, project) without any ACL, but we are trying to modify the xml to delete the acl by default and we can not get the result. Someone knows how can we do?

Regards

Thanks

Best by far to create (several as needed) Products, Libraries on a test system, then modify all Roles, ACL's, etc., and save as new Template, then export those Templates and import to Production, creating from there in Production.
