Managing Domain User Accounts
You can grant Active Directory (AD) domain user accounts access to the everRun Availability Console. Domain user accounts are managed on a central AD domain server, as opposed to the local everRun system.
After granting access to domain accounts, you can use the Grant Access wizard (on the Users & Groups page) to view, manage, and sort the AD accounts that have access to the system.
Prerequisites: You must add the
everRun system to an Active Directory domain before you can manage domain accounts. (See
Configuring Active Directory.) If Active Directory is not configured, or if the user who is logged onto the interface does not have administrator privileges, the Grant Access button
does not appear on the Users & Groups page.
To grant access to a domain user account
- In the left-hand navigation panel, select the Users & Groups page.
- In the upper right-hand corner, click Grant Access.
- In the everRun - Grant Access Wizard, specify the search range in the Search for menu.
- Type the name or group for which to search. Partial names and text are allowed.
- Click Search.
- Click the green plus sign (+) next to the users or groups you want to add as everRun Availability Console Global Users or Groups of the system.
- Use the drop-down menus in the Role column to assign a role to the user or group to which you have just granted access. You can assign the following roles:
- Administrator —Enables performance of the full range of system administration activities.
- Platform Admin—Enables Administrator privileges, except for managing user accounts.
- Read Only—Enables read access but no management functions.
- Everyone —Enables only limited read access to certain information.
- Click Finish. The new domain users are displayed in the Grant Access wizard.
To remove access for a domain user account
- In the left-hand navigation panel, select the Users & Groups page.
-
In the upper right-hand corner, click Grant Access.
- In the everRun - Grant Access Wizard, click the check box next to users or groups you want to remove.
- Click Deny Access, then click Finish.
