Description

How to set up WEM configuration specifically for user/user groups.


Instructions

Within WEM, you can not only assign "Configuration Sets" to a user or user group from inside the WEM Administration Console and expect for the configured settings to apply.

REQUIRED:
The Agent machines need to be added to a "Configuration Set" in order for the Agent on that machine to process any settings configured inside of WEM. If this is not done, the Agent machine will not synchronize with the WEM Broker and no settings will be applied.

The "Environmental Settings" within the WEM Administration Console are per-machine, not per-user. This means that, by default, all the settings configured inside of a "Configuration Set" apply to every non-admin user that logs into that particular Agent machine. In order to have different "Environmental Settings" apply to different users/user groups, they would need to be applied to a separate WEM Agent machine and all the settings would need to be configured inside a separate "Configuration Set" to which the WEM Agent Machine is bound.
