Opened: Jul 01, 2014

Severity: 4-Minor

Symptoms

Priority values can be specified in a user-domain profile to establish importance of one configuration over other. A configuration with higher priority is used over the one with lower priority. However priorities only work within a user-domain profile. They are not significant across user-domain profiles. Because of this bug, priorities are "visible" across user-domain profiles.

Impact

This has a very well understood workaround. There is almost no impact. Just a restriction on the value of the priority fields that can be used.

Conditions

This is an issue when user-domain profile is configured for User Identity feature.

Workaround

A workaround is to use different priorities across user-domain profiles. Priorities can still be enforced across one user-domain profile.
