About target device access rights
When you assign access rights to a target device, any available session types may be selected, even
if the target device does not support them. For example, you may enable Video Viewer and virtual
media sessions to a target device that is attached to a CCM appliance, which does not support
virtual media.. The target device access rights are not based on the valid type of connection to that
target device - the ability to establish a particular session type exists only when the target device
(through its managed appliance) supports it. Using the above example, if the target device that was
attached to the CCM appliance was later moved to a managed appliance that supported virtual
media sessions, the target device could then be accessed by that method.
Each access right is independent of other access rights. For example, you may enable virtual media
session access to a target device that supports it, but not enable KVM (Video Viewer) session
access to that target device. Since a virtual media session is launched from a KVM session, that
user would, in fact, not be able to open a virtual media session with that target device. The access
right only indicates that the user is allowed to perform the operation; it does not mean that the
operation can actually be performed.
To add or remove user/user group target device access and access rights::
NOTE: Only users in the DSView software administrator, appliance administrator and user administrator user
groups may configure unit access rights.
