Which Features Can Be Assigned To User Roles?

You can assign settings, portals, searches and reports to individual user roles. The following items are available on the Role Assignments page of the Administration tab:

Settings

Specify the default settings for each user role. For example, you can turn settings on or off. Also, you can optionally enforce individual settings to prevent users from modifying them.

Audit

These settings control iConsole audit behavior. For example, you can specify whether focus automatically moves to the next event after auditing and events are removed from the results screen after being audited.

Home Page

These settings configure the default behavior for iConsole home pages.

For example, these settings control whether a home page appears and which portlets can be included on a home page.

Printing

These settings determine whether printed search results include the event text content, summary details, and extended information.

Search

These settings control how search results are displayed. For example, you can specify the number of results per page and whether result rows can display multiple lines of text.

If your iConsole supports content searches, you can specify which content proxy server to use.

Portlets

Specify which home page portlets are available to each user role.

Types of portlet that can be created

Specify which portlets are available in the New Portlet tab of the Customize dialog. The New Portlet tab lists the portlet types available to users who want to add a personal portlet to their home page.

Note: This element is only visible if the role that you are editing has 'Allow portlet creation' enabled. You can allow or disallow portlet creation for all users under Home Page, Settings.

Portlets that are ready to be used on the Home Page

Specify which portlets are available in the Global Portlet tab of the Customize dialog.

The Global Portlet tab lists all existing global portlets that users can add to their home page.

Available Search and Reports

Specify which searches and reports are listed on the Review tab for each user role.
