Managing user authentication and permissions
Veritas Resiliency Platform provides a console for viewing information and performing operations. Managing user authentication and permissions for the console involves the following tasks.
Table: Process for setting up user authentication and permissions
Task | Details |
|---|---|
Configure authentication domains | You can add multiple authentication domains. See About user authentication in the web console. |
Configure user groups and users | Once you configure an authentication domain, you can configure user groups or users for Resiliency Platform from that authentication domain. |
Assign permissions to groups and users | When you configure user groups or users for Resiliency Platform, they are by default assigned the Guest persona, which gives permission to view information in the web console. Permission to perform operations in the console requires assigning additional personas. For some personas, you can also limit the scope of the operation to selected objects, for example, resiliency groups. See About user permissions in the web console. See Predefined personas. See About limiting object scope for personas. See Assigning permissions to user groups and users. You can also create custom personas. |
Configure Windows global user | To customize the static IP of Windows guest virtual machines in the VMware environment, you need to provide the administrator user name and password to log on to the Windows virtual machines. |
