[Unity-idm-discuss] Some issues with inspector role

[Sander A. <sa....@fz...>]

Hi Krzysztof,

within unity 2.4.2 we found some issues for users having the inspector
role.

1. A user has inspector role in root group. Within the root group
another entity is disabled. Instead of getting the user list, the
inspector sees this error: "Problem retrieving group members:
pl.edu.icm.unity.exceptions.IllegalIdentityValueException: The entity
is disabled"

2. A user is regular user in root group and inspector in one subgroup
(/a). The attribute CN got the attribute metadata "Value of this
attribute in the root group is used as an entity's displayed name."
This attribute is copied by attribute statements within the subgroup.
The inspector only sees the list of entities without the name. If the
inspector selects one of the entities, the inspector got the lists of
available attributes. After selecting one of the attributes, the
inspector can read the attributes.

3. A user is regular user in root group, inspector in first level
subgroup (/a) and contents manager within second level subgroup (/a/b).
The user tries to copy another user from /a into /a/b. The user got the
following error: "Access denied. The operation getGroups requires
'read' capability". If the user get inspector role in root group too,
it works.

I guess this setup is used quit seldom and the issues might be
available in the current release too.

Best regards,
Sander
