The following example illustrates delegated administration with domain-specific
applications and modules.
As the administrator of the Database domain, David Loo decides to customize the
Configuration application. To start with, David reviews the modules available in the
Configuration application module.
Figure 1. Starting view of the Configuration application
David decides to rename the Configuration application to CMDB and to allow the
inventory_admin role to see the application.
Figure 2. Sample domain-specific changes to the Configuration application
Next, David decides to change the Incident application by activating the Open -
in "New" State module and adding a new filter item to show open incidents in
the Database category.
Figure 3. Sample domain-specific changes to the Open - "New" State module
This creates a new module entry in the application rather than overwriting the existing
module in the global domain.
Figure 4. Domain-specific view of the Incident application
If another administrator from another domain, such as Fred Luddy, logs in and looks at the
Configuration application, the settings from the global domain appear.
