Grant or Revoke Subset Access

By authorizing access to a subset, you authorize an individual user or group to check out the subset, change it, and check it back in.

A user cannot create a new subset unless you grant update access for the entire model.

Note: For more information, see Authorizing Access to a Model in the chapter “User Management/Access” of CA Gen Client Server Encyclopedia Public Interface Reference Guide.

You can also revoke a user's or group's authorization to check out and update a specific subset of a model in the encyclopedia.

To grant or revoke access to a subset, you must be one of the following:

• An encyclopedia administrator
• The administrator of the model that contains the subset or the model owner
• The subset administrator
• A member of the group that administers the model
• A member of the group that administers the subset

You cannot revoke access for users who have subsets checked out.
