+  Built-in Tomcat manager roles:
+    - manager-gui    - allows access to the HTML GUI and the status pages
+    - manager-script - allows access to the HTTP API and the status pages
+    - manager-jmx    - allows access to the JMX proxy and the status pages
+    - manager-status - allows access to the status pages only
