Customize the Home Page

By default, end users have access to the following links on the Reservation Manager home page:

Administrators can customize the options that users can see on this page by removing access to any of these links. For example, you want your users to create only reservation requests based on public templates that you define. In this case, you could eliminate the Reserve a system, Create a virtual machine, and View system inventory links from the home page.

Note: You cannot make the Administer your Reservation Manager link available to end users. This link only appears for administrator users.

To customize the home page

  1. As administrator in Reservation Manager, under Administer Your Reservation Manager, click Manage your configuration settings.

    The Configure Settings page opens.

  2. Click the following links in the Quick Start area. Each one opens a dialog in which you can change the value and click OK. Set any of these options to false to remove the corresponding link from the end-users home page.
    Reserve Machine Access
    Reserve VM Access
    Create AMI Access
    View Template Access
    View Reservation Access
    View Machine Access

The configuration change takes effect when you restart the browser.
