Planning for your administrators
Document Manager has three classes of users who help maintain your
installation:
•
Domino.Doc Site Administrators
•
Domino.Doc Library Administrators
•
Domino.Doc File Cabinet Creators
Domino.Doc Site Administrators
A Document Manager site has one or more libraries. Only a Site
Administrator can create a library. The Domino.Doc Site Administrators
group is created during the creation of the first library. By default,
Document Manager sets the group name to Domino.Doc Site Administrators
and adds the name of the administrator who is creating the first library to
the member list. Members of this group are granted Manager access to all
Document Manager databases, and have the highest level of access to all file
cabinets, all binders, and all documents in the system.
Note
The Domino.Doc Site Administrators group is created automatically
on Windows, AIX, and Solaris platforms. For iSeries, the Domino.Doc Site
Administrators group must be created manually before the first library is
created.
You must have at least one Site Administrator, and can have as many as you
want. However, because Site Administrators have full access to all
Document Manager databases, and can perform actions that are otherwise
restricted in any library (for example, checking in documents to which they
do not have explicit access), you may want to keep the number of Site
Administrators as low as possible.
Domino.Doc Library Administrators
Domino.Doc Library Administrators have the highest level of access to their
library, and can access all file cabinets, binders, and documents in the
library. For example, you might need a Library Administrator to check in a
document that was checked out by someone who is now on vacation.
You must have at least one Library Administrator for each library, and can
have as many as you want. Having more than one Library Administrator
ensures that someone is always available to perform administrative
functions, despite vacations and illness. However, because Library
Administrators have full access to their library, and can perform actions that
are otherwise restricted (for example, checking in documents to which they
do not have explicit access), you may want to keep the number of Library
