User su has first name Super and last name User. In the base
configuration, Guidewire configures user su as an unrestricted user in
configuration file config.xml. PolicyCenter
does not evaluate permissions for the unrestricted user. As a consequence of PolicyCenter bypassing permission checking, the unrestricted user has
access to the entire PolicyCenter application. Thus, an
unrestricted user behaves as if it has all permissions.
It is not possible to add or remove permissions from an unrestricted user.
User su definition in file config.xml
Guidewire sets the username of the unrestricted user in file
config.xml using configuration parameter
UnrestrictedUserName.
<!-- Denotes the username of the unrestricted user. If not specified, defaults to "su" --> <param name="UnrestrictedUserName" value= "su"/>
User su and the command line tools
To run the PolicyCenter command prompt tools, you must supply a
username and password. If you do not supply the -user
parameter, the command defaults to user su and you must supply that
user’s password.
