Creating a user account for an individual user

Add an account for an individual user in IBM Spectrum Protect Plus. If you are upgrading from a version of IBM Spectrum Protect Plus that is earlier than 10.1.1, permissions assigned to users in the previous version must be reassigned in IBM Spectrum Protect Plus.

Before you begin

If you want to use custom roles and resource groups, create them before you create a user. See Creating a resource group and Creating a role.

Procedure

To create an account for an individual user, complete the following steps:

  1. In the navigation panel, click Accounts > User.
  2. Click Add User. The Add User pane is displayed.
  3. Click Select the type of user or group you want to add > Individual new user.
  4. Enter a username and password for the user.
  5. Click Add new permission. Expand the permission pane that appears.
  6. In the Assign Role section, select one or more roles for the user.
  7. In the Choose Resource Groups To Assign section, select the resource group for the user.
  8. In the Permission Groups section, review the permissions and resources that are available to the user.
    If you wish, click on Add new permission to add multiple permission sets to the user account.
  9. Click Create user.

Results

The user account is displayed in the users table. Select a user from the table to view available roles, permissions, and resource groups.
