Prerequisites
Adding users to the Veritas Enterprise Administrator
You may want to add users to the VEA authorization Database (AZDB) to allow
access to the interface to users other than root. You also have the option to give
database administrators root privileges.
Having root privileges means that you can access the operations for volume, disk,
and file system objects in the system. Use the commands in the table to add users.
Web GUI users must have a user account on the VEA authorization Database
(AZDB) as well as a user profile on the Web server to access the Web GUI version
of the Veritas Enterprise Services.

Foundation for Oracle.
