Setting up the Tenant Administrators role

In the initial content store, the Tenant Administrators role has no members and only System Administrators have access permissions for this role. System administrators must add members and modify the initial access permissions for this role to use it for delegated tenant administration.

Use the following procedure to add or remove members of the Tenant Administrators role.

1. Log on to IBM® Cognos® BI as a system administrator who is a member of the System Administrators role.
2. In IBM Cognos Administration, on the Security tab, click the Users, Groups, and Roles page.
3. Click the Cognos namespace.
4. In the list of entries, locate the Tenant Administrators role and click its properties icon in the Actions column.
5. On the Set properties - Tenant Administrators page, click the Members tab to add or remove users, groups, or roles from the Tenant Administrators role.
   • To add new members, click the Add link in the page and browse through the hierarchy of your security namespace to select the users, groups or roles that you want to be members of this role.
   • To remove members, click the Remove link.
