Changing The Conflict Resolution Method For An Individual Entitlement - Novell IDENTITY MANAGER ENTITLEMENTS SERVICE DRIVER 3.6.1 - IMPLEMENTATION Implementation Manual

This functionality is useful if, for example, you configure your environment to use Role-
Based Entitlements to place users in a hierarchical structure on another system. You
would want the user to be placed in either one place or another, not in two places at the
same time.
Keep in mind that the setting is independent for each entitlement offered by each driver.
As a general rule, if you use the "priority" setting, you should place administrator or
manager policies higher in the list than policies for end users or individual contributors.
You should put groups with narrower membership higher than groups with broader
membership.
