admin User Group

The provisioning system provides the admin user group after installation to allow initial system configuration. This user group is designed for administrators of the provisioning system.

Members of the admin user group have all permissions on all objects in the provisioning system and can modify an object whether or not they own it.

Members of the admin user group perform many functions.

• setting up hosts

• adding new user accounts and user groups

• setting permissions of user groups

• creating folders for user groups

• importing plug-ins

The admin user group comes with one default user, the admin user. However, if you have more than one administrator of the provisioning system, you can add other users to the admin user group.

Since the admin user group has complete control over all aspects of the provisioning system, be careful when assigning users to this group.

For more information about the admin user, see Default User Account.
