Configuring the Super User Role

Super User Role

When working with Security and ACL's in the system Workbench it is possible to lock out even Administrative users.  When logging into the system as a user with the SuperUser role flag configured, Security and ACL's are ignored.  This allows the Administrator to correct inadvertant security lockouts.  The Super User role only affects the design objects in the Workbench. 

To configure a Role as a Super User role, the superUserRole property can be set in the <InstallDir>/rxconfig/Server/server.properties file and restarting Percussion.

For example appending the following to the server.properties:

superUserRole=Admin

Would turn off ACL and Security filtering when any user in the Admin role logged into the Workbench.
