Privilege

Description

 

 

 

• Is assigned specifically to the chassis, such as IP mode (static or

 

DHCP), static IP address, static gateway, and static subnet mask.

 

• Provides services to the chassis, such as date and time, firmware

 

update, and CMC reset.

 

• Is associated with the chassis, such as slot name and slot

 

priority. Although these properties apply to the servers, they are

 

strictly chassis properties relating to the slots rather than the

 

servers themselves. For this reason, slot names and slot

 

priorities can be added or changed whether or not servers are

 

present in the slots.

 

When a server is moved to a different chassis, it inherits the slot

 

name and priority assigned to the slot it occupies in the new

 

chassis. The previous slot name and priority remain with the

 

previous chassis.

 

NOTE: CMC users with the Chassis Configuration

 

Administrator privilege can configure power settings.

 

However, the Chassis Control Administrator privilege is

 

required to perform chassis power operations, including

 

power on, power off, and power cycle.

User Configuration Administrator

User can:

 

• Add a new user.

 

• Change the password of a user.

 

• Change the privileges of a user.

 

• Enable or disable the login privilege of a user but retain the

 

name and other privileges of the user in the database.

Clear Logs Administrator

User can clear the hardware log and CMC log.

Chassis Control Administrator

CMC users with the Chassis Power Administrator privilege can

(Power Commands)

perform all power-related operations. They can control chassis

 

power operations, including power on, power off, and power cycle.

 

NOTE: To configure power settings, the Chassis

 

Configuration Administrator privilege is needed.

Server Administrator

This is a blanket privilege, granting a CMC user all rights to perform

 

any operation on any servers present in the chassis.

 

When a user with Server Administrator privilege issues an action to

 

be performed on a server, the CMC firmware sends the command

 

to the targeted server without checking the privileges of a user on

 

the server. In other words, the Server Administrator privilege

 

overrides any lack of administrator privileges on the server.

 

Without the Server Administrator privilege, a user created on the

 

chassis can only execute a command on a server when all of the

 

following conditions are true:

 

• The same user name exists on the server.

 

• The same user name must have the same password on the

 

server.

 

• The user must have the privilege to execute the command.
