User Privileges
Server Administrator provides security through the User, Power User, and Administrator user groups. Each user group is assigned a
dierent level of access to the Server Administrator features.
The Administrator privileges are required to access all Storage Management features. Administrator privilege allows you to execute the
drop-down menu tasks, launch wizards, and use the omcong storage command-line interface commands. Without Administrator
privileges, you cannot manage and congure the storage component.
User and Power User privileges allow you to view storage status, but not manage or congure storage. With User and Power User
privileges, you can use the omreport storage command and not the omcong storage command.
For more information on user groups and other Server Administrator security features, see the Server Administrator User’s Guide.
