Adding New Security Labels or Label Values
New security labels or new security label values can be added by following some of the steps used for initially configuring security labels.
To add a new security label, complete the following steps:
1. Specify the display name and description for the new security label. For more information, see Define Security Labels.
2. For standard security labels, specify the display names and descriptions for the new security label values. For more information, see Define Standard Security Label Values.
3. Add a SecurityLabel element for each new standard security label, and SecurityLabelValue element for each new standard security label value to the security labels configuration file. Add a CustomSecurityLabelValue element for each new custom security label, and CustomSecurityLabelValue element for the custom security label values to the security labels configuration file. For more information, see Edit the Security Labels Configuration File and Custom Security Labels.
4. Add the new security label to the LogicalAttributesSite.xml file. For more information, see Edit LogicalAttributesSite.xml.
5. If your site uses object initialization rules, ensure that object initialization rules can be created for the new security label. For more information, see Add Security Labels to RuleConfigurableTypeAttribute.properties.
6. Specify the attribute handler for the new security label. For more information, see Specify Attribute Handler for Label Attribute.
7. Clear your Windchill cache by deleting the infoengine folder from the <Windchill>/tasks/codebase/com directory.
8. Restart your method server to make the configuration changes effective.
