How to create a mining model role and change its default values

To create a mining model role and change its default values

  1. In the Analysis Manager tree pane, right-click the mining model for which you want to create a mining model role, and then click Manage Roles.

  2. In Mining Model Role Manager, unchecked roles are database roles without access to the mining model. Checked roles are mining model roles, which have access. Do one of the following:
    • To create a new mining model role by granting access to a database role, select the check box beside the database role. The remaining steps in this procedure are optional. To continue, select the mining model role, and then click Edit.

    • To use an existing mining model role as the basis for the new mining model role, select the existing mining model role, and then click Duplicate. (This action also creates a database role with the same name as the new mining model role.) In the Duplicate Role dialog box, specify a name for the new role that is 50 characters or less and begins with an alphabetical character, and then click OK. Select the new role, and then click Edit.

    • To define the new mining model role without values from another role, click New. (This action also creates a database role with the same name as the mining model role.) In the Mining Model Role dialog box, type a value in the Role name box. You can enter a maximum of 50 characters; the name must begin with an alphabetical character.
  3. (Optional.) In the Mining Model Role dialog box, type a value in the Description box.

  4. In the Membership tab, specify the users and groups in the role.

    Note  Changes in this tab propagate to the database role and mining model roles with the same name as the edited mining model role.

    To begin adding users and groups, click Add, and then in the Add Users and Groups dialog box:

    1. In the List Names From list, click the domain from which to select users and groups.

    2. To display users under Names, click Show Users.

    3. To display a group's members, click the group, and then click Members.

    4. To add a user or group to the role, click the user or group, and then click Add.

    5. After you have added the users and groups to the role, click OK.

    To remove a user or group from the role, in the Membership tab, select the user or group, and then click Remove.

  5. In the Mining Model Role dialog box, click OK.
