Update Role Definitions

Each upgrade of CA IdentityMinder requires an update of role definitions. This update is required so that the environment has the current version of roles and tasks and the product works as documented. Use the following procedure to import the role definition files one at a time for your situation.

Follow these steps:

1. In the Management Console, click Environments.
2. Select the environment.
3. Go to Role and Task Settings.
4. Click Import.
5. Select any file and click Finish to import that file.

   For example, select Access Requests and click Finish to include tasks where you can manage services.

6. Scroll up to see role definition files under the heading, Category: Upgrade to 12.6SP.
7. Select the role definition files that apply to the release where you are starting.

   Note: You choose one file to upgrade role definitions and click Finish; then, you choose the next file to import.

   For each file you choose, select the right version. The columns show if the file applies if you have a provisioning server and if the user store has an organization. For example, for an r12.0 CA IdentityMinder environment that uses a provisioning server, and the CA IdentityMinder user store has a flat hierarchy (no organization), select the following files:

   • Upgrade-12-to-12.5-RoleDefinitions-ProvisioningNoOrganization.xml
   • Upgrade-12.5-to-12.6-RoleDefinitions-ProvisioningNoOrganization.xml
   • Upgrade-12.6-to-12.6SP-RoleDefinitions-ProvisioningNoOrganization.xml

     The 12.6SP files upgrade the environment to the current SP release of 12.6.

After you import the role definition files, you can view and execute new tasks by assigning them to the appropriate admin role.
