online after the firmware update has completed. This applies to

Working with local user accounts
You can set up three levels of local user accounts: guest, user, and administrator. Guests see only
the main LMC display. Local Users can operate a partition, but cannot run diagnostic tools, which
require access to the physical library. Administrators can access the entire physical library and all
of its partitions.
Administrators are responsible for:
• Setting up and managing users
• Specifying logging and notification policies
• Updating software
• Setting the date and time
• Importing, exporting, and moving media
• Any other management associated with the physical library
For information on user accounts that reside on a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP)
server, see “Using LDAP” (page 68).
Creating local user accounts
To create local user accounts:
1. Log on as an administrator.
2. Make sure that you are viewing the physical library. From the View menu or in the Managed
Views region of the LMC, click the name of the physical library.
3. Click Setup→User Configuration→Local Users.
The Local Users dialog box appears.
