Adding An Administrator
When defining an administrator, you specify the administrator permission level. Permission levels are predefined in the
system.
The defined permission levels are as follows:
•
Administrator
•
View only
The permission level defines the set of actions that are allowed by the user at this level.
To add an administrator:
1.
In the NAS Manager, select Cluster Management → General → Administrators.
The Administrators page is displayed.
2.
Click Add.
The Add Administrator page is displayed. By default, the Properties tab is displayed.
3.
In User name, enter a name for the administrator.
4.
In Password, enter a password containing at least six characters.
5.
In Retype password, enter the exact password that you entered in the password field.
NOTE: If the password is too simple you are prompted to enter a more complex password.
6.
In User ID, enter the UID or use the default UID provided by the system.
7.
From the Level list, select the permission level for the administrator. You can select, 3-Administrator or 4-View only.
NOTE: You can only define other administrators with permission levels that are hierarchically lower than your own.
8.
In E-mail address, enter the e-mail address of the administrator in each available E-mail address field.
The system uses this E-mail address to send alerts to the administrator. You can add additional E-mail addresses by
clicking Add Email address. You can set the types of E-mail alerts to send to the administrator using the Filters tab.
