For user groups whose roles are other than Storage Administrator, All Resource
Groups Assigned is automatically set to Yes. If you delete all the roles except Storage
Administrator, reassign resource groups to the user group because All Resource
Groups Assigned is automatically set to No.
Workflow for creating and managing user accounts
Administrators use Device Manager - Storage Navigator to create accounts for all users.
The following steps show a basic workflow:
■
If an authentication server is used, connect the management clients to it. An
authentication server allows users to log in to Device Manager - Storage Navigator
with the same password as the one used for other applications in a system.
■
If an authentication server is not used, use a password dedicated to Device Manager -
Storage Navigator to log in. Whether to use the authentication server can be specified
for each user.
■
Review Setting up authentication and authorization (on page 157) for information
and instructions.
■
Review Managing user groups (on page 84) to understand the user groups and roles
you can assign new or existing users.
■
Create user accounts and assign permissions. See Creating user accounts (on
page 77) .
■
Change, disable, or delete user passwords and permissions. See Changing user
passwords (on page 81) .
