DMA Operations Guide

Users

 

 

2Create a local user account for yourself with the Administrator role. See “To add a local user” on page 334.

3Log out and log back in using your new local account.

4Go to Users > Users and delete the admin account. See “To delete a local user” on page 335.

To find a user or users

1Go to User > Users. The Users page appears.

2For a simple search, enter a search string in the Search users field and press ENTER.

The system matches the string you enter against the beginning of the user ID, first name, and last name. If you enter “sa” it displays users whose IDs or first or last names begin with “sa.” To search for a string not at the beginning of the field, you can use an asterisk (*) as a wildcard. You can restrict the search to local users by selecting the check box.

3For more search options, click the down arrow to the right.

Additional controls appear that let you search specific fields and use specific filters.

4Select the filters you want, enter search strings for one or more fields, and click Search.

The system displays the users matching your search criteria (up to 500).

Note

The DMA system’s user database is unsorted. To avoid performance issues, if your query matches more than 4000 users, no attempt is made to sort the results on the server side before returning the first 500 matching records. The system simply returns the first 500 found in the database.

In any case, there is no way to retrieve the next 500. To see all the users that match your search criteria, narrow your criteria so that no more than 500 users match.

To add a local user

1Go to User > Users.

2In the Actions list, click Add.

3In the Add User dialog box, complete the General Info fields. See “Add User Dialog Box” on page 317.

4To assign the user additional roles (besides Conferencing User), click Roles. Select the role or roles you want to assign and use the arrow button to move them to the Selected Roles list.

5Click OK.
