Logging on and off of Storage Mirroring
To ensure protection of your data, Storage Mirroring offers
multi-level security using native operating system security features.
Privileges are granted through membership in user groups defined
on each machine running Storage Mirroring. To gain access to a
particular Storage Mirroring source or target, the user must
provide a valid operating system user name and password and the
specified user name must be a member of one of the Storage
Mirroring security groups. Once a valid user name and password
has been provided and the Storage Mirroring source or target has
verified membership in one of the Storage Mirroring security
groups, the user is granted appropriate access to the source or
target and the corresponding features are enabled in the client.
Access to Storage Mirroring is granted on one of the following
three levels:
! Administrator Access—All Storage Mirroring features are
available for that machine. For example, this access level
includes creating replication sets and establishing Storage
Mirroring connections.
! Monitor Access—Statistics can be viewed on that machine, but
Storage Mirroring features are not available. For example, this
access level does not allow the user to create or modify
replication sets or create or modify Storage Mirroring
connections, but does allow you to view the connection
statistics for any established Storage Mirroring connections on
that machine.
! No Access—The machine appears in the Storage Mirroring
Management Console and can be pinged from the Storage
Mirroring Text Client, but no other access is available.
1. Highlight a machine on the left pane of the Management
Console. By double-clicking the machine name, Storage
Mirroring automatically attempts to log you on to the selected
machine. Verify your access by the resulting icon.
2. If you have no access, the Logon dialog box will automatically
appear. If you have monitor access or want to log on with a
different username, right-click the machine name and select
Logon.
