Managing a local user

[EcoStruxureIT]

Add or edit a local user in the System > Users and Device Group Access option.

Note

To delete a local user, select that user in the Users and User Group Details section of the Users tab, and click Delete.

1. In the Users and User Group Details section of the Users tab, click Add User to add a local user, or select a listed local user and click Edit User to access the "User Configuration" display.
2. In the User Information tab:
   1. In the User Credentials section, define the credentials.
      E-mail address is optional for non-Data Center Expert Administrators. This address is used to send e-mail to a Data Center Expert Administrator for notifications related to the Data Center Expert server itself, and monitored NetBotz Appliances, but not for monitored SNMP or Modbus devices.
   2. In the User Roles section, select the role or roles for the user, if any.

      Note

      If you select the Data Center Expert Administrator role, click OK to exit the "User Configuration" display: this role provides full access to all server, monitoring, and surveillance functions; settings in the User Group Memberships and Device Group Privileges tabs will have no affect on the user's privileges.

   3. If you want the user disabled, uncheck Enable this User.
3. In the User Group Memberships tab, select the local user groups to which you want the user to belong, if any.

   Note

   If you select a user group with Data Center Expert Administrator identified in its Roles column, selecting any other user group will have no affect on user privileges: this user group provides full access to all server, monitoring, and surveillance functions.
