Change owner of an instance

Hi,
Is there a way to change the owner of an instance? I see in Link: [Changing the owner of a report|Changing the owner of the report] that this not possible for a report, but hopefully it is for report instances.
My reason for wanting to do this is that I've imported 1000+ objects and instances from an old CE9 server usingthe Import Wizard and its kindly assigned the Administrator as the owner of all of them. Admitedly I hadn't configured the security by this time so it couldn't do much else. I would like to be able to return ownership to specific instances to the original owners without them having to rescuedule.
I'm using BusinessObjects Enterprise XI 3.1 SP2 on IIS if it makes any difference.
Any ideas?
Thanks,
Mike

As for as i know for a existing instance you can not change the ownership. Once Administrator occupied thats instance then you can not cahnge back to any other..perhaps you can not change on other user name also.
Thanks,
Anil

  • Background job executed as SAP*, need advice to change owner.

    Hi all,
    I'm facing an issue where my SAP background job currently has 2 job "SAP_CCMS_CPH_REORG" and "SAP_CCMS_CPH_HRCOLL" under the ownership of sap. I would like to move them away from SAP ID.
    I have tried to recreate the job using sm36 (and using my ID with sap_all profile) in testing environment, but it not seem to work.
    Highly appreciates any advices and/or pointers with regards to the above mention question.
    Thank you.

    Hi all,
    Thank you for the reply but I have forgotten to add a few updates.
    The issue is that I can change owner from SAP* to my ID with sap_all profile.
    But, after execution,
    Job with sap* owner ended successfully, with spool status marked as completed.
    whereas
    Job with my ID as owner ended successfully, but spool status marked as "waiting"

  • HT201317 Change Owner photo stream

    Hi all,
    How do you change owners for a shared photo stream?  Can there be more than one owner for a shared photo stream?!
    Thanks,

    Or do I just need to delete the Photo stream and start over with a new owner?

  • Changing Owner & Business Group of ASD Custom Resource

    So this is a bit of an expansion of this discussion: https://communities.vmware.com/thread/500669?start=0&tstart=0
    You will see that pizzle85 managed to solve his challenge of BG object ownership by using an ASD Service Catalog Request located in each Business Group's Entitlements so a member of the business group can just run the Provision required to bring the BG item under management in the business group.  This is quite an effective method to solve the need.  He then has a Resource Action that allows for re-"Provision" which changes owner within the business group: a necessary task because managers tend to move around a lot so they can look busy. (just kidding, I love managers--who have a sense of humor)  So to change owner... just perform a "provision" again.
    Apparently this is one of the best kept secrets in vRA because it has been hard to figure out, and nobody is writing about it.  (I can only assume that there is some SE out there who has worked with the developers to get this capability going and it hasn't been shared widely.)
    Note: I think Business Groups as a Service is something I need to plan for (vs centrally managed Business Groups) even though their future implementation might vary, so my examples here are related to that effort because I am too lazy to demonstrate a generic example.  BUT... the idea is... ownership of ASD Inventory Objects (representing ANY Custom Resource) can be modified using this method.  Ownership includes both the owner represented by "ME" in the Items list... and the Business Group  (subtenant Reference & Label) where the item resides in inventory.
    In 6.2.x, I have not found any method in the vRO plugin for vRA to be able to change ownership and business group of an ASD Custom Resource Inventory Item, but it can be accomplished via a combination of (1) ASD Service Catalog or Resource Action "Provision" capabilities and (2) REST calls through the vRA plugin service channels.  (the latter uses the plugin service account authorizations/entitlements)
    Consider this image...
    This could represent a central management point for many business groups: where I can assign a set of resource actions allowing for automation of various business group needs, an anchor point for actions.   Those in the sktest business group Support User or Manager Role would be able to see all the business groups globally if they were all provisioned in sktest.  (a bucket to manage from)
    This also could represent a starting point where business groups are created as real objects, returned as custom resources, and "provisioned" as inventory object items.  But once there...maybe you want to move it?
    Let's say we later decided, seantesting doesn't belong in sktest because we wanted to change from the "we manage it for you" model to the "manage it yourself" model.  How do you move it?
    Like this...
    And it moves now owned by the vRA plugin service account... (which an entitled user could run Take Ownership and own it in that business group)
    The service account obviously needs to be part of the destination business group and as it ends up, has to have an entitlement to any "provision" action in the business group even though the object doesn't exist there.
    This is a tricky hack and this is how it works...
    1. vRO workflow calls the Take Ownership Action in vRA via REST (front door process).  As noted before, this has a provision attribute to the action which we know changes the owner.  So we would expect that the owner would change to the user that is making the request: which is the service account.  The service account becomes the owner, but this wouldn't change the Business Group.
    2. So we change subtentantRef and subtenantLabel in the REST call to the business group we want to target, even though the object isn't in inventory in that business group.  And Voila! The business group item representation re-provisions as a new owner in a new business group.  Effectively changing the owner and moving the object from one BG to another BG using the management-method vs the self-service-method (the latter as pizzle85 did).
    Again... maybe you care less about Business Groups.  Maybe you would prefer self-service. It is the capability of moving a custom resource inventory representation that matters.
    Here is an example of the REST call to run the "Take Ownership" action.  I have a script before this that pulls in all the variables for the "Resource" I am targeting (from the BusinessGroup object ID), the action I am running  (Take Ownership ID), the business group Ref and Label) and some of the properties I need for the Take Ownership action like bgName... but those are actually not necessary. (all of the "entries" are what is required per the Take Ownership request... if that request didn't require any inputs, there would be no entries... it is the top change of subtenant that allows for the BG move)
    System.log("resourceRef: " + resourceRef);
    System.log("resourceActionRef: " + resourceActionRef);
    System.log("targetRef: " + targetRef);
    System.log("targetLabel: " + targetLabel);
    System.log("bgName: " + bgName);
    var payload ={
    "@type":"ResourceActionRequest",
    "resourceRef":{"id":resourceRef},
    "resourceActionRef":{"id":resourceActionRef},
    "organization":{"tenantRef":"vsphere.local","tenantLabel":"vsphere.local","subtenantRef":targetRef,"subtenantLabel":targetLabel},
    "state":"SUBMITTED",
    "requestNumber":0,
    "requestData":
    {"entries":[
    {"key": "provider-rYouSure","value":{"type":"boolean","value":"true"}},
    {"key": "provider-bgName","value": {"type": "string","value":bgName}}]}
    payload = System.getModule("org.dojotoolkit.dojo.json").serialize(payload);
    System.log(payload);
    Server.log(payload);
    var catalogRest = cafeHost.createRestClient(vCACCAFEServicesEnum.CATALOG_SERVICE);
    var response = catalogRest.post("consumer/requests",payload);
    Best of luck in your Automation Efforts!

    Turns out... it is likely not required as part of the request data.

  • Change owner

    i want to give change owner authorization to user in marketing document where is that authorization

    hI  Ajit
    it could be done through two ways however i cant give u the query for that  as i don't have but could tell u they
    one way is through SP that could Solve ur problem nd second way is through SDK but i would not recommend using the SP as sap does not support usage of it
    so u can ask other fellow  user to provide u with the query for either of the ways
    or there is a third way that is most easy out of the others thats is through creating additional authorization
    go to admin-system initialization authorization- addiction authorization creator then create a new authorization under the form id please place the "form number.item number" and save the document
    and please don't forget to click on items and under option place "Full/Read/None"
    and then go to authorization window choose the user id for which u wana place the restriction then move down to user authorization there u would find the authorization that u made in additional authorization creator and assign the authorization as per your requirement
    Hope that would help u

    Hopefully this is the full list of apps in the basic Tiger installation:
    http://www.apple.com/macosx/techspecs/
    Additionally, all other Apple apps (think iLife etc.), in addition to the Tiger apps, should be in the Applications folder.
    Only third party apps can be easily put into sub-folders. And whatever you do don't go tidying up anywhere else outside of your user folder.

  • Changing owner on GPO give error

    My account is in Group Policy Creator Owners and can create GPOs fine.  I can modify permissions via the Delegation tab as well.  But when I go to try and change the owner of a policy, I get:
    Unable to set owner on <GUID>. The parameter is incorrect.
    It shows me having Modify Owner access on this policy so why would this not work for me?  Thanks.
    BTW, a Domain Admin can change this with no error.

    Hi,
    >>If you are saying to give Group Policy Creator Owners access to modify the owner of all GPOs, that is not acceptable in this environment.
    I am saying that we can just edit access control list of the GPO that we want to change its owner but not all GPOs.
    >>Seems to me if you are the owner of an object, you should be able to change this but that is not happening with GPOs in our case.
    Please follow the advice (giving the create owner
    change owner permission) I provided in the last reply to see if the issue persists.

  • Query - Change Owner

    Can we change the owner of a query. Since we have security setup that only the owner can modify we will run into situations where an employee is leaving the company but someone else is taking over their query.
    Thanks

    Hi,
    You can not change Owner of a Query...
    You can try this:
    First save existing Query with different technical name by required developer/user.Then delete old(original Query)..now save that Query with the same original tech name and delete old one..
    For example:you have a Query with tech name 'ZQUERY'.
    1.Save this Query as 'ZQUERY1' and delete 'ZQUERY'.
    2.Now save 'ZQUERY1' as 'ZQUERY' and delete 'ZQUERY1'.
    If you Perform 2nd step with required User ID,You will have desired Owner for this Query..
    Hope this helps.

  • When we change owner of a task or a request is any log maintained anywhere

    HI ,
    When we change owner of a task or a request is any log maintained anywhere
    suppose we want to check who were the owners of a particular task is there a table which
    saves this change informatiion ,also when we transport a request to say  QA then in QA will
    the individual tasks be present or only the request .
    Thanks

    Hello
    The owner of a request or task is stored in E070-AS4USER. For this table there is no change log active (obviously).
    Thus, you will not find this change of the request/task anywhere except you define it yourself.

  • Change Owners and Remove Previous Owner

    We setup both a Visual Studio Online and Azure Development under my contract Developers account who is the sole owner at this time.  I would like to know if we can change owners and then remove my current developer from any administrative roles. Also,
    would all the development work and setup for VSO and Azure move without deleting work done to date? Further to this I would like to change the URL?

    Hi pphawkins,
    For Visual Studio Online account, you can ask the contract Developers to add your MS account to a team member of the Visual Studio Online account and then change the owner ship to your account. Check this
    page for more details.
    If the Visual Studio Online account is linked to an Azure subscription, you can also unlink it then relink to your own Azure subscription. If the development work is deployed to Auzre websites/cloud service, then you might continue
    to keep the linking with former Azure subscription if you don't want to make changes. Or you can deploy to your own Azure websites/cloud service if you'd like to link your Azure subscription to your Visual Studio Online account. Another
    other concerns related to Azure, you can also open a new thread in Azure forums. Thanks for your understanding.

  • SQLModel, changing owners dynamically.

    I am getting ready to convert an application from ND, and it does
    some unique stuff which I'm not sure how to convert, so I am
    consulting the wisdom of the JATO list, in search of guidance before
    I run down some dead ends.
    The application renders an electronic survey form. The data for this
    comes from one of two Oracle DB owners. One of the owners is
    the 'live' version of a survey, the other is a 'test' version, used
    while developing new surveys. A flag is passed in with the url to
    determine which to use.
    This was accomplished in ND by having a synonym for the table name in
    the test area which pointed to a test table name. Then in ND we would
    call setRuntimeUserID depending on who we wanted to be ('prod'
    or 'test'). This would effectively change the owner in the dataobject
    in ND. To elaborate:
    In prod, we have:
    prod.survey (table)
    prod.test_survey (table)
    In test, we have:
    test.survey (synonym to test.test_survey)
    In this way, all the ND DataObject needed to know was that it was
    going against 'survey', and didn't care if it was a table, or a
    synonym pointing to a table. All the column names were the same.
    Now to JATO where I have a view bean which is looking at a model
    which is pointing to a data_source_name defined in iPlanet.
    What is the best way to approach this?
    - Should I try to change what userid is being used by the data source
    in the iPlanet container? That sounds unwise.
    - Should I try to change the owner dynamically in the Model? Sounds
    promising, but how would I do that?
    - Should I have 2 data_sources defined, and dynamically switch which
    one the Model is using? Can that even be done?
    - Should I try to change the table name in the Model dynamically? Can
    I even alter that at runtime?
    - Should I have 2 models, and dynamically switch the binding of the
    View at runtime? Not sure how to do that, and I would hate having to
    maintain 2 models.
    Well there is the problem. I hope I have layed it out clearly. I
    really appreciate any guidance in this before I get started.
    Thanks,
    John Hoskins

    Took all day, but I finally tracked down the problem.
    In the tiled view, I was getting an instance of the model, but it was
    apparently different from the PrimaryModel. As soon as I changed that,
    it all started working.

    I decided to take a different tack on solving this problem, and am
    hitting a new snag. First the new solution, then the snag:
    I decided to change the list of tables being used in the where clause,
    depending on whether it was a work or production call.
    I changed the SELECT_SQL_TEMPLATE substituting __TABLES__ for the
    actual list of tables.
    Then at run time, I use the StringTokenizer2.replace() to substitute
    __TABLES__ with the proper list of tables, either
    "wis.surveyquestions" or "wis.work_surveyquestions".
    I also used table aliases so I can use them with the field names. So
    I'm actually substituting in "wis.surveyquestion sq" or
    "wis.work_surveyquestion sq", and the field references in the sql look
    like "sq.survey_id". I also made the same change to the
    QUALIFIED_COLUMN_..., and the FIELD_... in the model interface.
    Now the snag.
    It doesn't work. Well it does work. It changes the table names, it
    runs the sql, it even appears to return values (according to the
    getSize()), but the tiled view won't display any of the rows. It runs
    the nextTile once, then finishes. Do I need to do anything special
    with the field creation statements when they bind the models fields to
    the views fields? Did I change the field strings properly?
    If the SQL looks like this:
    public static final String SELECT_SQL_TEMPLATE="SELECT ALL
    SQ.SURVEY_ID, ..."
    I change the following in the modelImpl:
    public static final String
    QUALIFIED_COLUMN_WIS_SURVEYQUESTION_SURVEY_ID="SQ.SURVEY_ID";
    public static final String
    COLUMN_WIS_SURVEYQUESTION_SURVEY_ID="SURVEY_ID";
    and this in the model interface:
    public static final String
    FIELD_WIS_SURVEYQUESTION_SURVEY_ID="SQ_SURVEY_ID";
    The field creator in the tiled view looks like this:
    if (name.equals(CHILD_SQ_SURVEY_ID)){
    HiddenField child = new HiddenField(this,
    getdo_survey_questionsModel(),
    CHILD_SQ_SURVEY_ID,
    do_survey_questionsModel.FIELD_WIS_SURVEYQUESTION_SURVEY_ID,
    CHILD_SQ_SURVEY_ID_RESET_VALUE,
    null);
    return child;
    Any pointers on what the field names, and how they should correspond
    in the Models members would be appreciated.
    Thanks,

    but since this is an ND migration, I am quite sure that is notwhat you

    Once you "get" the model, just set and get values or

    No, not two instances, just a conditional in your model. There is a
    method
    in QueryModelBase called setDataSourceName(String), which you are
    already
    calling to set the JDBC datasource name. Our suggesting is that
    depending
    on whether you are in development or production, you can simply call
    this
    method with the appropriate value. The easiest place to do this
    would be in
    the constructor of your QueryModel itself:

  • How to change owner of queries and transport.

    Hi Experts,
    Earlier the queries are designed by some other user.According to business requirements I have customised the data targets and infosets also accordingly.All queries are designed on infosets only.
    If I  am coming to query designer to change queries according to requirements, i am not getting change or edit mode for that,even if  I saved the query with some other technical name also I am not getting change or edit mode.
    While I open the opened the query it is showing the following errors :
    1. Bex transport request is not available or not suitable.
    2. Choose an existing request.
    Up to my understanding to assign the queries to my own BEX transport requests ,how can  I change the previous query owner to my user name.
    If I  assign to own bex transport request then
    Please let me know if any information needed still.

    Dear,
    As explained above .....go to SE09 and selct the request and change the owner...
    Also,
    If u use SAVE AS option for the existing query,,,then a new query opens..
    and assign that query to a NEW Transport Request...
    This solves ur problem...
    The problem of
    1. Bex transport request is not available or not suitable.
    2. Choose an existing request.
    is because... the query has been attached to a TR which has been already moved to Quality or Prod...
    So any changes have to be put in that request which is no longer available..
    So use Save AS option and assign it to a new TR.
    Hope this helps u..
    Best Regards,
    VVenkat..
