About this task
If you are using the WebSphere Application Server Dynamic

has security roles defined in its deployment descriptor you need to
do the following:
To navigate to the "Step: Map security roles
to users/groups" panel in the WebSphere Application Server Administration
Console, click and complete

For more information,
see the Deploying secured applications and Assigning users and groups to roles topics.
Procedure
In the "Step: Map security roles to users/groups" panel:
- Specify the users and groups that are mapped to each of
the security roles.
- Select the check box beside Role as
required to select all of the roles or to select individual roles.
For each role, you can specify if predefined users such as Everyone
or All Authenticated users are mapped to the role. To select specific
users or groups from the user registry:
- Select a role and click Lookup users or Lookup
groups.
- On the Lookup users or Lookup
groups panel that displays, enter the search criteria
to extract a list of users or groups from the user registry.
- Select individual users or groups from the results displayed.
- Click OK to map the selected
users or groups to the role selected on the "Step: Map security roles
to users/groups panel".
Currently, there is one role defined which provides access
to all of the cache monitor functionality. This means that this page
can be used to specify which users can have access to the Dynamic
Cache Monitor.
