Editing user accounts and user groups

In the event a

user account

or user group must be modified, you can edit it from the Users tab on the Users

and Authorizations

page.

NOTE:

If a group's configuration rights or login IP address restrictions are changed, these changes are

immediately reflected in all current members of the group. If a group name is edited, none of its current
members are affected, other than picking up the new group name.

NOTE:

A group-based user account can be edited only to convert to an individual user and is not reversible.

To edit a user account or user group:

1.

Select Options

SecurityUsers and AuthorizationsUsers.

2.

Select the user or user group you want to edit, and click Edit. The Edit User or Edit User Group
section appears.

3.

Change the appropriate setting.

Note: Steps d-e and i-m are not available for user groups.

a.

In the Login name (on central management server) field, edit the operating system name for
the user or user group. This field is required.

b.

In the Domain (Windows domain for login name) field, edit the Windows domain name for the
user or user group name if the

Central Management Server

(CMS) is running Windows.

Note: If the user account was migrated from Insight Manager 7, the Domain (Windows® domain
for login name)

field has a dummy domain associated with the user. If the user is a user that

receives pages, this field must be edited to include a valid domain on your network.

c.

In the Full name field, edit the full name for the user or group.
