Privilege Levels In The Server Administrator GUI
NOTE: This help page may
include information about features not supported by the system. Server
Administrator only displays features that are supported on the system.
Server Administrator gives different privileges to its three user levels. Server Administrator online help identifies the users who can perform various tasks using the windows in the GUI.
The three user levels are:
- Users — can view most information.
- Power Users — can set warning threshold values
and configure which alert actions are to be taken when a warning or
critical event occurs. Power users can also send e-mails from within
Server Administrator. NOTE: Due to the limitations of the VMware ESXi operating system, the alert actions are disabled.
- Administrators — can configure and perform shutdown actions, and configure Auto Recovery actions in case a system has a hung operating system. Administrators can also clear hardware, event, and command logs. Administrators can configure locally-attached RAID and non-RAID storage in the Storage Management Service.
