Assign a User Role

You can assign a user role to a user in order to control which CA Data Protection features and actions are available to that user. When users are assigned to a user role, they automatically inherit the default administrative privileges for that role.

To assign a user role to a user

  1. Right-click a user and click Properties.
  2. In the User Properties dialog, go to the Details tab.
  3. Click Change User Role and select the new role.

    Note: After assigning a user role, you cannot change the administrative privileges assigned to that user. If an individual user requires a custom set of privileges, you must create a new user role and assign the required privileges to that new role. Then assign the role to the user.
