Example 3  Adding an Exception to Exclude Scope Authorizations

This example adds an exception to exclude svc scope authorizations for the user "brendan":

hostname:configuration users brendan > exceptions
hostname:configuration users brendan exceptions > create
hostname:configuration users brendan auth (uncommitted) > show
Properties:
                         scope = (unset)
hostname:configuration users brendan auth (uncommitted) > set scope=svc
                         scope = svc 
hostname:configuration users brendan auth (uncommitted) > show
Properties:
                         scope = svc
                       service = *
              allow_administer = false
               allow_configure = false
                 allow_restart = false
hostname:configuration users brendan auth (uncommitted) > commit
hostname:configuration users brendan exceptions > show
Auths:

NAME            OBJECT                               PERMISSIONS
auth-000        svc.*                                none 

hostname:configuration users brendan exceptions > select auth-000
hostname:configuration users brendan auth-000 > show
Properties:
                         scope = svc
                       service = *
              allow_administer = false
               allow_configure = false
                 allow_restart = false

hostname:configuration users brendan auth-000 >

Example 4  Adding an Exception to Include Scope Authorizations

This example adds an exception to include a scope authorization that is not part of the role "webadmin":

hostname:configuration users brendan exceptions > create
hostname:configuration users brendan auth (uncommitted) > set scope=appliance
                         scope = appliance 
hostname:configuration users brendan auth (uncommitted) > show
Properties:
                         scope = appliance
                       service = *
                   allow_audit = false
            allow_factoryReset = false
                allow_powerOff = false
                  allow_reboot = false
                 allow_setName = false
                   allow_shell = false
                   
hostname:configuration users brendan auth (uncommitted) > set allow_audit=true
                   allow_audit = true (uncommitted) 
hostname:configuration users brendan auth (uncommitted) > commit
hostname:configuration users brendan exceptions > show
Auths:

NAME            OBJECT                               PERMISSIONS
auth-000        svc.*                                none 
auth-001        appliance.*                          audit
