Assigning MTS Roles

MTS roles represent sets of system-level privileges that are required for a particular business function. They are set at the package level. The CML.pak file, an MTS package, has two prepackaged roles defined — Admin and User. You need to add the Library Admin account to the Admin role of the existing package. For more implementation information, see Component Packaging.

To assign Windows NT user accounts to the CML roles

  1. Start the Microsoft Transaction Server. Do this by clicking Start, pointing to Programs, and pointing to Windows NT 4.0 Option Pack. Then point to Microsoft Transaction Server and then Transaction Server Explorer.
  2. Expand the Computers node, expand My Computer, expand Packages Installed, and expand Corporate Media Library.
  3. Expand Roles, then expand Admin. Select Users.
  4. Right-click the Users subfolder for the Admin role, point to New, and click User.
  5. Double-click Library Admins in the Names list box. Click OK.
  6. Close the Microsoft Transaction Explorer.

Note  It is OK to assign the built-in Everyone account to the User role, but you should only assign library administrators to the Admin role.
