Feature permissions
The system administrator can allow users access to specific functions of Element Manager features
through HAFM.
The HP StorageWorks HA-Fabric Manager user guide provides detailed instructions for assigning
permissions.
There are three permission levels that can be assigned to specific users:
•
Device Administration
•
Device Operation
•
Device Maintenance
By default, all users have read-only rights, which allow viewing but not modifying data or
configurations. You can enable each of the permission levels as either read-only or read/write for
specific users. Users that are assigned a permission level that is required for a specific feature must
also be given read/write access to modify any data through the feature. For example, to clear the
Audit Log, a user must be assigned Device Administration permission, as well as read/write
access. If a user is assigned Device Administration permission, but read-only access, that user can
only view the Audit Log.
itemizes specific functions available to Element Manager users who have been assigned
Device Administration, Device Operation, and Device Maintenance permissions. The user must
also be assigned read/write access to perform functions that modify data or configurations. If a
user does not have permission to perform a specific operation, a not-authorized error box displays
when the operation is attempted.
