Change the Privileges or Role of a User

When a stand-alone user or a user within a group wants extra privileges, you can add these privileges to the user. You can also remove some privileges of any user. You can change the Role of a user to Read only, or Read and Write for any given License type. For example, a user with an operator license can be assigned either the OperatorRW (Read and write) or the OperatorRO (Read Only).

Note: By default, for any license type you get the Read and Write Role.

Follow these steps:

1. Log in to the OneClick console.
2. From the Navigation pane, click Users, and select the stand-alone user, or a user within a group by expanding the group.
3. Select Access from the Contents pane.
4. Select the Security community of the user.
5. From the Component Detail pane, select Privileges.

   Under Privileges, you can add or remove a Privilege from the list of privileges. The list also shows the privileges that are enabled for the user.

6. Click Add / Remove.

   The Add / Remove Privileges dialog opens.

7. Select the Privileges that you want to enable for the user, and click OK.
8. To change the Role of the User, Select Roles from the Component Detail pane and click Add / Remove.

   The Assign Role dialog opens.

9. Select the required Role from the right pane and move it in the left pane, and click OK.

The extra Privileges are enabled or disabled for the user. The required role is also assigned to the user.
