IBM WebSphere V5.0 Security - CGISecurity

If you want to edit the security role mapping for an application, open the
Administrative Console and click Applications -> Enterprise Applications.
Select the application, for example ITSOBank, to get to the application details
page. Select the Map security roles to users/groups link, which will bring up
the same mapping page that you see during deployment.
You can perform the security role mapping or you can change the actual
mapping. After you are done, you have to restart only the enterprise application.
The application will pick up the new mappings and will run with the new settings.
Redeploying an application
This may occur if you have a deployed and working enterprise application and
you need to make some minor changes on the code or the application. It would
be the case in a test environment or when dealing with an application on a
staging server. Redeploying the whole application every time you make a change
is time consuming and unnecessary.
There is a fastpath for modifying and redeploying an application without losing
the deployment information. Here is how to do it:
1. Start the Administrative Console.
2. Select the enterprise application under Applications -> Enterprise
Applications, then click Export.
3. Save the deployed application in a directory of your choice.
4. You can either modify the application using the Application Assembly Tool, or
import it into WebSphere Studio and perform the modifications there.
5. Once you are done with the modifications, redeploy the application in your
WebSphere Application Server. During deployment, you will not have to
perform any new binding or mapping unless you have changed something
related to mapping and binding, so just go to the last step, click Finish and
you are done.
