Give the User Permission to a Passive Probe Instance

To enable a management console user to open a packet capture investigation on a CA GigaStor in CA Observer, give the CA Application Delivery Analysis user permission to a passive probe instance on the CA GigaStor.

If the CA GigaStor has more than one active probe instance, give the user permission to a passive probe instance that corresponds to the appropriate active probe instance. You cannot give a management console user permission to more than one passive probe instance on the same CA GigaStor. By default, the management console connects to the first active probe instance on the CA GigaStor. For information about enabling the management console to connect to another active instance on a CA GigaStor, contact CA Support.

For information about probe instance administration, see the CA GigaStor product documentation.

Follow these steps:

1. Click the Administration page.
2. Click Security, and GigaStor Instances in the Show Me menu.

   GigaStor Instances By User opens.

   If the GigaStor Instances command is not displayed, verify that at least one CA GigaStor has been added to the management console.

3. Click to edit a management console user.

   GigaStor Instances for <user> opens.

4. Type the passive instance name you want the management console user to access on the CA GigaStor and click OK.

   GigaStor Instances by User refreshes the GigaStor Device [Instance Name] column to display the passive instance name on the GigaStor.
