Managing Home Site Assignments
You can modify and delete home site assignments. You can also display the effective home site for each
global entitlement to which a user belongs.
Modify a Home Site Assignment
You can change an existing home site assignment for a specific user or group.
To modify the association between a global entitlement and a home site for a specific user or group, see
“Modify a Home Site Override,” on page 34.
Procedure
1 Log in to the View Administrator user interface for any View Connection Server instance in the pod
federation.
2 In View Administrator, select Users and Groups, click the Home Site tab, and select Assignment.
3 Select the home site assignment to modify and click Edit.
4 Select a different home site from the Home Site drop-down menu.
5 Click OK to save the new home site assignment.

To remove the association between a home site and a global entitlement for a specific user or group, see

addition, home sites associated with global entitlements can override a user's own home site. You can use
View Administrator to determine a user's effective home site.
Procedure
1 Log in to the View Administrator user interface for any View Connection Server instance in the pod
federation.
2 In View Administrator, select Users and Groups, click the Home Site tab, and select Resolution.
