Control Manager supports importing users from pre-established Active Directory lists. Import Active Directory user accounts to allow others to log on to the Control Manager management console, appear on the recipient list for notifications, or be added to user groups.
Control manager provides two methods to search for Active Directory users, by user name and by the base distinguished name.
To add a user account:
Mouseover Administration on the main menu. A drop down menu appears.
Mouseover Account Management from the drop down menu. A sub-menu appears.
Click User Accounts from the sub-menu. The User Accounts screen appears.
In the working area, click Import AD Users. The Import Active Directory Users screen appears.
There are two methods available to search for users:
User Name: Type the name or a partial name for the user in the User Name field.
Base distinguished name: Type the distinguished name, the base name, or both to search in the Base distinguished name field.
Click Search. The top ten matches from each domain appear in the User(s) list of the Search Result area.
Select the users to add to Control Manager and click the > button. Selected items appear in the Import List.
Click the Next button.
Select the account type from the Select account type list. Example: Operator, Power User or Administrator.
Advanced Edition only: For users to take advantage of the cascading management structure, they need to have "Power User" rights or greater.
Select the products or directories the user has access to from the Select accessible products/folders: work area.
