SIMViewOnly

Users created in HP Systems Insight Manager are automatically placed in the SIMViewOnly role. This role does not allow users to access any of the features listed in Table 12 on page 138. See ”Adding Users” on page 144 for more information.

Granting Global Reporter Access

Users with access to Global Reporter can view all elements throughout the enterprise, including those on the server running Global Reporter. Grant access to Global Reporter only to those who should be allowed to view all elements. You may want to disable this functionality for some users.

Domain Administrator Role Privileges

Only users belonging to the Domain Administrators role can add, modify, and delete users, roles, and organizations. The Domain Administrator can only edit active organizations.

Domain Administrators can change the user names and roles of other domain administrators, but they cannot modify their own user name and roles while logged into the management server. Domain administrators can also edit their full name, e-mail, phone, and other details, as well assign and un-assign any organization.

System Configuration Option

If the System Configuration option is selected for a role, all users assigned to that role will have the administration capabilities shown in the following list:

•Schedule discovery

•Find the CIM log level

•Save log files, e-mail log files

•Save the database, backup the database, and schedule a database backup

•Configure Event Manager, File System Viewer and Performance Manager

•Configure reports and traps

•Set up the management server to send e-mail

If you do not want users belonging to that role to have those capabilities, do not assign the System Configuration option.
