Veritas CloudPoint Administrator's Guide

To create a role

1. On the dashboard, in the Administration card, locate Roles, and click Manage.
   
2. On the Role Management page, click New Role.
3. On the New Role page, specify the name of the new role, and optionally give it a description.
4. Select information from the following tabs:

   • Users

     This tab displays a list of CloudPoint users and their email addresses. To assign a user to the role, select the corresponding check box. Select one or more users.

     

   • Permissions

     This tab displays a list of preconfigured permissions. Select one or more permissions.

     

   • Assets

     The left side of this tab displays a list of all available CloudPoint assets. The right side displays the assets that are assigned to the role. When you first assign assets to a role, the right side of the tab is blank.

     Note:

     As the CloudPoint admin, you see all assets, regardless of whether they are appropriate for the permissions you set. The asset list is not automatically filtered based on the permission you select. If you are a non-admin user with Role management permission, you only see the assets assigned to you.

     In the available list, select assets you want to add to the role, and click Assigned Selected. You can also use the buttons Assign Selected, Assign All, Remove All, and Remove Selected to create your assigned asset list.

   

   At a minimum, you must specify the following:

   • One user and one permission

   • One user and one asset

   • One user, one permission, and one asset

5. Click Save.

   CloudPoint displays a message that the role is added.

6. Note the new entry on the Role Management page.
