Permissions

Permissions define the actions that IBM® Sterling Control Center Monitor users can perform.

If a role does not have permission to access a function, that function is not shown on the web console of the affected user and cannot be selected. After you define a role with restricted access, you can restrict access to actions, rule schedules, SLC schedules, and calendars. You can restrict access by associating the restricted role with the item you create.
