To Add Users and Related Roles

Note - For the Sun StorEdge 6120 storage arrays, valid user names are existing or newly-created Solaris or other operating environment user accounts with assigned user roles. The system administrator first logs in as root and assigns the user role admin to the valid user account. After the admin user logs in and assigns user roles as described here, users can log in using their user name and password - the user role defines array access.

  1. Log in to the Sun StorEdge Configuration Service software as a user that is in the admin role.
  2. Click the Administration tab.
  3. Click the Users link.
  4. The Manage Users page is displayed. The default view of the page shows all users. To show users according to their roles, select Storage, Admin, or Guest from the Filter menu.

  5. Click Add.
  6. Type the user name of a user who has an existing account on the machine where the software is installed.
  7. Select a role from the Role menu.
  8. admin - A user with an admin role can add or delete users and has access to the features on the Administration page

    storage - A user with a storage role can use the features available from the Array Management and Storage Access pages

    guest - A user with a guest role can view each page in the interface, but cannot modify or change any editable attributes. Access to the software is read-only.

  9. Click Save.
