OpsCenter user roles
OpsCenter users are categorized as follows:
Table:
User | Description |
---|---|
Security Administrator |
A Security Administrator is a super admin user who can perform all OpsCenter functions including user management. The OpsCenter Security Administrator can create, edit, or delete users. |
Administrator |
This user can perform all OpsCenter functions except for user management. |
Operator |
This user is not involved in the activities that are related to managing users, OpsCenter Server, and NetBackup configuration. |
Restore Operator |
The role of this user is to mainly perform restore operations. The Restore Operator can monitor, perform alert operations and run standard or custom reports.
|
Reporter |
The role of this user is to mainly generate the operational and business-level reports for further analysis. A Reporter would be able to view only those schedules that they themselves create. The Security Administrator, Administrator, and Operator would however be able to access all the schedules. |
Note:
You can assign a user role to a user group of an authorized AD / LDAP domain. The same user role is assigned to each user of the authorized domain group.
Table: User roles lists the OpsCenter user roles and the OpsCenter UI functions that these users can perform.
