Working with Security in a Multi-Galaxy Environment

The multi-Galaxy environment supports the OS User and OS Group ArchestrA Security models.

The Galaxy ArchestrA Security model is not supported:

In order for writes to succeed in a multi-galaxy environment:

• The logged-on user must be a member of the domain, either OS User or OS Group.

• Both galaxies in the pair must be configured to use the same security model.

A user with domain security credentials in a galaxy from which a write is initiated can perform writes, secured writes, and secured and verified writes, depending on configured privilege level—to a remote galaxy without logging on to the remote galaxy.

• Use InTouch as a client to write to attributes in a remote galaxy whether or not the user has logged on to InTouch.

• Use Object Viewer to write to attributes in a remote galaxy.

• Use the MxAccess client to write to attributes in a remote galaxy.
