Duplicate Group Assignments - User

Use this window to search for and list the users that meet your search criteria and then select one user. The same groups that this user is a member of will be the same groups that the previously selected users will be added to.

Note: If the federated repositories configuration has changed since the application server or deployment manager was started, you must restart the application server or deployment manager to ensure that changes to users and groups are saved to the current configuration.
Search by
Select one of the choices of attributes by which you want to search. The default value is User ID.
Search for
Type a value for the attribute that you want to search for, or use the wildcard character (*). The default value is * (all). Whether the search is case sensitive depends on the user registry that is being used. For example, you might type these values if searching by user ID:
  • To search for all user IDs, type *.
  • To search for user IDs that begin with the letters luc, type luc*.
  • To search for user IDs that end with the letters cas, type *cas.
  • To search for user IDs that begin with the letters lu and ending with the letter s, type lu*s.
Maximum results
Type the maximum number of search results that you want to be displayed. If you type a number that is higher than the default value, performance will be affected. The default value is 100.

Click Search to find and display a list of one or more existing users that match your search criteria. After the search completes, a list of users that match the search criteria is displayed.

Highlight one user from the list displayed to select it. Click OK to assign the previously selected users to the same groups that this selected user is currently a member of.

Note: The Duplicate Group Assignments action adds a user to additional groups; it does not remove the user from any groups that the user is already contain in. For instance, Bob is in group1 and group2 and James is in group3, group4, and group5. After duplicating James' group assignments for Bob, Bob will be in group1, group2, group3, group4, and group5.
