​Question

How do you report the list of users having access to InfoSphere Information Server components based on Role type?

Cause

The Information Server administrator often needs to report on the list of users having access to specific components for compliance and security reasons.

Answer

Information Server Reporting provides a report template named "List of users" to report on the users having access to specific Information Server components.

For example,

To report the list of users having access to the Business Glossary Component:

1. Login to InfoSphere Information Server web console and navigate to Reporting -> Report Templates -> Administration -> Security -> View report Templates

2. Select report List of Users and Create New Report. Provide a Name and Description of the New report

3. Select the Role Type and the InfoSphere Information Server Component

4. Click on Retrieve Values to populate the Role ID based on the selected Role Type and Component

5. Select the Output format, Expiration, and History Policy for the report

6. Select Finish -> Save and Run now

7. Select the report name -> View Report Result to get the list of users having access to Business Glossary Component

The above steps can be repeated to report the list of users for other Information Server Components such as DataStage, QualityStage, Fast Track, and Information Analyzer.
