Your user ID and the user groups you are a member of are profiled with a set of permissions that determines which Tivoli® Enterprise Portal features you are authorized to see and use, a list of monitored applications you are authorized to see, and a list of Navigator views (and the highest level within a view) you can access.
Clicking 
Administer Users opens
the Administer Users window. This is a two-paned window with Users
and User Groups tabs in the top frame, and several tabs in the bottom
frame. This arrangement enables the administrator to manage user profiles
by individual user, by user groups, or a combination of the two. You
might create a user profile, then copy the profile for each additional
user and change settings as needed (such as, for the Action feature,
granting View permission to one user and granting Modify permission
to a different user). Or you might create a user group with a particular
profile and add users to the group. Then you can modify the permissions
once for a group and apply to all members automatically.
When you modify the permissions or the list of monitored applications for a Tivoli Enterprise Portal user or user group, the authorization change does not take effect until the user logs out of the Tivoli Enterprise Portal client and then logs back in. If Tivoli Enterprise Portal permissions are being used to authorize monitored resources for dashboard users, the authorization changes also do not take effect until the user logs out of Dashboard Application Services Hub and logs back in.
