HP StorageWorks XP10000 Disk Array - Manual (Page 17)

XP Remote Web Console provides a default account with the user ID and password of “administrator.” By
default, the operation authority for all XP Remote Web Console features and product options is given
to this user account. Also, the user account with the user ID of “administrator” cannot be deleted. You
can register up to 500 user accounts including the user account with the user ID of “administrator”
for XP Remote Web Console.
When you create a user account, you need to specify the user ID, user type, and password.
An operation authority can also be specified for each registered user account. To register a
user account or to set an operation authority, use the Account pane. For further information on
registering the user account and setting the operation authority for XP Remote Web Console, see
“ Setting User Accounts (Account Pane) ” on page 86. The following sections describe the user type
and operation authority.
User Types
There are two types of XP Remote Web Console users:
• Storage administrator
• Storage partition administrator
You can determine the user type when you register the user account. The storage administrator and the
storage partition administrator roles are described below.
• Storage administrator: A storage administrator operates the entire array. Only storage administrators
can perform Control Panel and audit log-related operations in the XP Remote Web Console. The
user account that is set by default in XP Remote Web Console with the user ID of “administrator” is
a member of the Storage administrator group.
• Storage partition administrator: A storage partition administrator can operate an SLPR (Storage
Management Logical Partition) allocated in XP Remote Web Console. A storage partition administrator
cannot perform Control Panel and audit log-related operations in XP Remote Web Console. For
additional information on an SLPR, see the HP StorageWorks XP Disk/Cache Partition user guide.
NOTE:
A storage partition administrator can use only a portion of the licensed product options. For details on
the product options that a storage partition administrator can use, see Allocating Licensed Capacity
among Storage Logical Partitions .
Operation Authority
If you set the user ID and password when you register a user account, you can specify various types of
operation authorities for registered user accounts. In XP Remote Web Console, the operation authority
is also referred to as “role.” The parameters for the operation authorities that can be set for each user
account are as follows.
• Account Administrator Role (user account operation authority): The account administrator role
provides the authority to operate the Account pane that can used to manage XP Remote Web Console
user accounts. All users can change their own passwords and view the details of their own accounts.
Only users in the account administrator role can change the password or settings of another user's
account. You cannot change the account administrator role settings for the default account that has
the user ID of “administrator.”
For each user account, you can specify the authority of the account administrator role from one of the
following three types:
• Modify: If you have this authority, you can add and delete all user accounts (except for the user ID
“administrator”) and change their settings. For the user account of user ID “administrator”, you
can change the password and the operation authority; however, you cannot change the account
administrator's role. The operation authority Modify has been set for the user account with the
user ID of "administrator.”
