8.5. Viewing the Root Organization

When you launch the IQ Server for the first time, it has no organizations or applications except for the root organization. The root organization is always present and cannot be deleted. To view the root organization, click the Organization & Policies icon figs/web/clm-server-manage-app-org-icon.png on the IQ Server toolbar. The root organization appears in the sidebar.

[Note]

You may also see Repositories in the sidebar of the Organization & Policies area. If you are a Nexus Repository Manager customer who has enabled the Audit and Quarantine features, you can use Repositories to set security for repository evaluation results. For more information, see the IQ for Nexus Repository Manager chapter.

Figure 8.1. Root Organization


The root organization allows you to set policy (rules) that are inherited globally by all organizations. This includes policy management features like policies, labels, license threat groups, application categories, and security, all of which are discussed in later chapters (see Basic Policy Management and Advanced Policy Management).

If you have permissions, you can change the name and icon attributes of the root organization:

  1. Click the Organization & Policies icon figs/web/clm-server-manage-app-org-icon.png on the IQ Server toolbar.
  2. Click the Root Organization icon figs/web/clm-server-root-org-icon.png in the sidebar.
  3. Go to the Actions menu and click Edit Org Name / Icon.
  4. In the Edit Organization dialog, set the following attributes:

    1. Organization Name - Enter a name into the text box.
    2. Icon - Select from three options:

      • Default - Uses the default image.
      • Upload a custom icon - Click the Upload Icon Image button to navigate to an image file in PNG format and click Open. The image should be sized to 160 x 160 pixels. Images with different sizes will be scaled.
      • Get a robot - Click the Get Another Robot button to cycle randomly through a variety of robot images.
