Radhika,

Yes, this is supposed to work.  The entire idea of Struct Admin is to set up
someone who can perform structure operations to the system but who cannot see 
any
data in the system -- unless they are in additional groups that grant them data
access.

So, it is intended for exactly the type of work you are describing.


NOTE that there is one minor issue....  And that is with using Dev Studio (but 
it
should have no affect on Migrator).

Dev Studio uses a number of view forms that sit on top of the metadata.  Well, 
those
are DATA forms....  So, Struct Admin does not have access to them as it is data.
So, you need to also put the user into a group that does have access to the 
metadata
forms in order for a Struct Admin user to use Dev Studio.

Unfortuntately, in 7.6.04, the metadata forms no permissions set up so you will 
need
to add a group and then add permission to that group to these forms and make the
user also a member of that group.  Then no problem.

It has nothing to do with structure access or making changes, just that Dev 
Studio
does use these metadata views for retrieving some data and displaying it so it 
will
not work correctly without access to the metadata views.

This topic is documented in the manuals and the permissions will be present in
future releases so that there is no work other than assigning a group to the 
user.
But it is one for now.  I just wanted to call out this warning.

Subject: Struct Admin and BMC Remedy Migrator

Hi List,

In ARS 7.6.04 SP4, we plan to implement the Struct Admin Group Permission for 
AR System metadata forms in order to allow members of Struct Admin group to 
create forms/workflow in Developer Studio without Administrator permission.

Is it also possible to use BMC Remedy Migrator 7.6.04 and deploy forms/workflow 
from source to target AR Server with just Struct Admin Permission and without 
Administrator?

Thanks
Radhika
