Configuring Server-level Access Rights

The server-level access rights you assign to users and groups authorize them to perform specific operations in a particular server configuration. One of the options determines who can and who cannot create projects when the server configuration is running.

Note: You can assign server access rights only when a server configuration is running.
  1. Open the Server Administration tool and select the server configuration.
  2. Click the Accounts bar and then click GUID-60EFADDF-C701-49E6-916D-ECFDE3C56875-low.gif (Access Rights ). The Access Rights dialog box opens.
  3. Click New. The Add a User or Group dialog box opens.
  4. Select the user or group to be assigned access rights.
  5. Check Grant, and click OK.
    CAUTION:
    Never check Deny unless you are creating an exception.
  6. Select a user or group from the User and Groups list. This enables the various check boxes in the Access Rights dialog box. You can select or clear the appropriate check boxes as needed. If you cannot view the entire Access Rights dialog box, resize the Server Administration tool window.

    Click Select All and Clear All as necessary to speedily check or clear all of the check boxes in the Access Rights dialog box.

    CAUTION:
    Clicking Delete under the Users and Groups list removes the selected user or group from the list. As a result, the user or group loses any previously set access rights to the server.
  7. Click OK.
