Security

The Deployment component offers the following security features:

You need to be a privileged user to use the Deployment component. This is determined by granting access permissions for deployment in the object level security (OLS). These permissions must be associated with your security profile.
Note: For more information, see the Common Security section in the DSM Explorer Help and the Implementation Guide.
When creating a deployment job, you typically specify the user name (username) and password for the target computer. The credentials specified should have the necessary privilege to perform an installation (that is, Administrator or root).
However, after the first deployment of a package from a deployment manager to a particular target computer, a trust relationship is established between the two, and for subsequent deployments you do not need to provide the user credentials again for the target.
