Administrators
During installation, a default ZENworks
®
administrator account (named Administrator) is created.
This account, called a Super Administrator account, provides full administrative rights to the
Management Zone.
Typically, you should create administrator accounts for each person who will perform administrative
tasks. You can define these accounts as Super Administrator accounts, or you can define them as
administrator accounts with restricted rights. For example, you could give a user an administrator
account that only enables him or her to discover and register devices in the Management Zone. Or
the account could only enable the user to assign bundles to devices, or could limit the user to
performing asset management tasks such as contract, license, and document management.
IMPORTANT: In addition to the default Administrator account, you should make sure that you
have at least one other Super Administrator account. This provides redundancy in case the password
for the Administrator account is forgotten or lost. For information on how to create a Super
Administrator account, see
Section 2.2.1, “Assigning Super Administrator Rights,” on page 30 . If
you need any further help, contact Novell

Support (http://www.novell.com/support) .
In some cases, you might have multiple administrator accounts that require the same administrative
rights. Rather than assign rights to each account individually, you can create an administrator role,
assign the administrative rights to the role, and then add the accounts to the role. For example, you
might have a Help Desk role that provides administrative rights required by several of your
administrators.
You can use ZENworks Control Center (ZCC) or the zman command line utility to create and
modify administrator accounts and assign roles. The following procedures explain how to perform
these tasks by using ZCC. If you prefer the zman command line utility, see “
Administrator
Commands ” in the ZENworks 10 Configuration Management Command Line Utilities Reference .
