Sun N1 System Manager 1.3 Discovery and Administration Guide

Restricted Mode Capabilities

If your data center configuration does not allow the N1 System Manager to connect to both the management network and the provisioning network, the N1 System Manager operates in restricted mode.

The restricted mode is related to the privileges associated with the role of N1 System Manager users. Depending on how the N1 System Manager is configured, the administrator should assign the appropriate restricted mode role to users.

When the N1 System Manager is operating in restricted mode, users should be assigned only those privileges associated with the ProvAdmin or MgmtAdmin restricted mode roles, depending on the configuration. The ProvAdmin and MgmtAdmin restricted mode roles have been created specifically for the N1 System Manager's restricted mode of operation. It is possible to delete or modify the ProvAdmin and MgmtAdmin roles. Any custom roles you create should conform to the privilege set included in the ProvAdmin and MgmtAdmin roles, for stable performance of the product in restricted mode.

For information about roles, see Introduction to User Security.

Some N1 System Manager functions are not available based on whether your restricted mode installation has access to a management network only, or a provisioning network only. The following table lists all the commands that are valid for each restricted installation mode. If your installation provides only a management network, then only those items marked X in the management network column are available in the restricted mode. If you have only a provisioning network, then only those items marked X in the provisioning network column are available in the restricted installation mode.
