Roles and privileges for BDD targets

Only users with sufficient roles and permissions can perform operations, such as Start and Stop, on the targets for Big Data Discovery.

The Enterprise Manager Cloud Control lets you use various roles and privileges, when working with targets that you are managing. For information on how to create, grant and use roles and privileges, see the Oracle Enterprise Manager Cloud Control Security Guide.

To make sure the BDD plug-in lets you perform the tasks you need for the Big Data Discovery, you, as the administrator of Enterprise Manager, must:

Have a super user privilege, or
Have both of these privileges:
- "Operator" privilege for the host target on nodes where the Big Data Discovery product is installed. (This is because host commands are used by the Enterprise Manager, to operate on BDD targets.)
- "Create job" privilege for the host targets on nodes where the Dgraph is installed. (This is because Enterprise Manager jobs are used to start and stop the Dgraph.)
