You can set up a user account for using Storage Advisor Embedded and managing a storage system.
A user's operating permissions are set based on the role assigned to the user group to which the user belongs.
To use Storage Advisor Embedded to manage a storage system, you must register the user in the Administrator user group (a built-in user group).
You must register the user in the Maintenance user group (a built-in user group) in addition to the Administrator user group if you want to perform the following operations:
- Specifying settings related to configuring drives (In the navigation bar, click Others > Drive Settings.)
- Using the maintenance utility for checking storage system alerts.
Regardless of which tool you used to create a user account, such as creating the account by using the storage system REST API, the account can be used in Storage Advisor Embedded if it is registered in a user group to which all of the following roles are assigned:
- Storage Administrator (Initial Configuration)
- Storage Administrator (System Resource Management)
For VSP G130, G/F350, G/F370, G/F700, G/F900, Storage Administrator (System Resource Management) role is also required.
- Storage Administrator (Provisioning)
- Storage Administrator (Local Copy)
- Storage Administrator (Remote Copy)
- Security Administrator(View & Modify)
- User Maintenance
User Maintenance role is also required only when you are specifying settings related to drives or checking the maintenance utility for alert information.
