Rolemap properties
Use the HCL VersionVault Rolemap properties page to view or edit properties of an ACLs rolemap.
An ACLs rolemap specifies the principals that take on roles listed in a rolemap, and applies the access controls to one or more VOB objects.

| Property name | Property description |

| Name | The name of the rolemap. |
| Selector | Displays the rolemap-selector in the form [rolemap:]rolemap-name[@vob_selector] where rolemap-name is the name of the rolemap and vob_selector is the object-selector for a VOB, in the form [vob:]pname_in_vob. |
| Kind | The kind of resource that is currently selected (a rolemap). |
| Description | The creation comment associated with the rolemap. |

ACL properties
The ACL tab of a rolemap properties page displays the following information about the selected rolemap:
| Property name | Property description |
|---|---|
| Permissions for user | Shows the generic permissions (such as Read, Change, Full, or None) for the current user on the currently selected rolemap. |
| Full Effective ACL | Shows the shows the principals and permissions of the effective ACL for the current rolemap. The effective ACL is computed by combining the rolemap and its rolemap, substituting the role mappings in the rolemap for the role in the rolemap's access control entries. The net result is an ACL that has no indirect principals and is easy to interpret during an access check. |
| Only show entries affecting me | When this option is selected, the Full Effective ACL displays only those principals which include the current user. |

If the selected rolemap is in a VOB that is replicated using HCL VersionVault MultiSite, the Mastership tab of the rolemap properties page displays the following information about the selected rolemap:
| Property name | Property description |

| Current replica | The replica name of the replica that holds the rolemap (the replica that is accessible to the VersionVault server). |
