Description Ladislav Thon 2013-10-10 14:34:03 UTC
Title: Scoped Roles

Describe the issue:

Besides the fact that the text of this chapter is incomplete ("common use cases" missing), I'd suggest a small rewording in these sentences:

1. "Scoped roles allow users can be granted different permissions in different server groups and on different hosts."

2. "A role that is host-scoped restricts the permissions of that role to one or more host resources."

3. "This means access is provided to the relevant /host=*/ resource trees but sub-resources that are specific to other hosts are hidden."

4. "A role that is server-group-scoped restricts the permissions of that role to one or more server-group resources."

5. "Any sub-resources within any of those that are logically related to the server-group will not be visible to the user."

Suggestions for improvement:

1. "Scoped roles allow users to be granted different permissions in different server groups and on different hosts."

2. "A role that is host-scoped restricts the permissions of that role to one or more hosts."

3. "This means access is provided to the relevant /host=*/ resource trees but resources that are specific to other hosts are hidden."

4. "A role that is server-group-scoped restricts the permissions of that role to one or more server groups."

5. "Any sub-resources within any of those that are not logically related to the server-group will not be visible to the user."

1 and 5 are IMHO important for understanding. 2, 3 and 4 are probably nothing more than nitpicking.
