Administration > Account Management > User Accounts
Control Manager user accounts allow administrators to specify which products/directories other users can access.
When administrators specify which
products a user can access, the administrator is also specifying what
information a user can access from Control Manager. This applies to component
information, logs, product summary information, security information,
and information available for reports and queries.
Example: Bob and Jane are OfficeScan administrators. Both have
identical account type permissions (they have access to the same menu
items in the Web console). However, Jane oversees operation for all OfficeScan
servers. Bob on the other hand only oversees operation for OfficeScan
servers protecting desktops for the Marketing department. The information
that they can view on the Web console will be very different. Bob logs
on and only sees information that is applicable to the OfficeScan servers
his Control Manager user account allows (the OfficeScan servers for the
Marketing department). When Jane logs on she sees information for all
OfficeScan servers because her Control Manager user account grants her
access to all OfficeScan servers registered to Control Manager.
