The following privileges are available:

  • Administrator
  • User Admin

Important Considerations

  • If privileges are greyed out, the user might be created on a remote authentication server (Active Directory) and not on the LogLogic LMI appliance.
  • An appliance administrator can modify the privileges of remote users from the Management > Users > Users page. To modify privileges for an AD-based user: On the Directory Roles tab, click the role name and click the Privileges tab. For more information, see User Roles.
  • All appliance options are listed in the following tables. However, depending on the appliance selection, you might see only a subset of these options in the navigation menu for your appliance.
