Add Roles to a SiteMinder Policy

When a user is assigned to an appropriate access role accessing a protected resource, the SiteMinder Policy Server verifies access roles assignment to the user. Upon verification, it fires the rules included in the policy to check whether the user is allowed to access the resource or not.

Follow these steps:

1. In the SiteMinder Policy dialog, click the Users tab.

   The Users tab contains tabs for each user directory and CA IdentityMinder environment included in the policy domain.

2. Select the CA IdentityMinder Environment that contains the roles you want to add to the policy.
3. Click the Add/Remove button.

   The SiteMinder Policy CA IdentityMinder Role dialog opens.

4. To add roles to the policy, select an entry from the Available Members list and move it to the Current Members list.
5. Click OK to save your changes and return to the SiteMinder Policy dialog.
