Adding OpenEdge Management users as administrators or operators
OpenEdge Management provides two different user roles: administrator and operator. One predefined user with an administrator role is provided and is named admin.
An administrator user can add other users and specify their role. The administrator user has access to all OpenEdge Management functionality and can, for example, read all OpenEdge Management information, modify settings and configurations, set operations into action (such as starting or stopping the database), and delete resources and users from OpenEdge Management.
At a minimum, operator users can view configurations and configure their own views. Operators can also change their own passwords and descriptions. The operator role can be configured by administrators to give operator users access to more OpenEdge Management functionality.
If a user's role changes from administrator to operator and the user is logged on at the time, any operator restrictions become effective for that user immediately. In other words, the links or buttons, for example, that operators no longer have access to become disabled immediately for the affected user.
User accounts are defined solely within OpenEdge Management. They define who can log in to OpenEdge Management using a Web browser.
