HP Insight Control Server Provisioning 7.2 Administrator Guide

4.5.1 User accounts and roles
User login accounts on the Insight Control server provisioning appliance must be assigned a role.
The role determines what the user account has permission to view and do. For instance, a Server
Administrator cannot edit an OS Build Plan.
The following are the roles provided with IC server provisioning:
Infrastructure Administrator
• all privileges are granted so this role can perform any action on the appliance including
management of deployment content (OS build plans, scripts and so on)
Server Administrator
• run OS Build Plans
• manage servers including add, delete, and modify servers
• cannot modify deployment content (OS Build Plans, scripts, configuration files, or packages)
• cannot manage users
• cannot change appliance settings
Backup Administrator
• can only perform backup and restore operations
• provided for use with backup scripting so Infrastructure Administrator credentials do not have
to be saved in a script
• you cannot log into the appliance with these accounts
Read Only
• may only view appliance information
For information on how to add, delete, and edit user accounts, see the Insight Control server
provisioning online help.
4.6 Auditing
The audit log contains a record of important actions performed on the appliance. The audit log
can be downloaded by users in either the Infrastructure Administrator or Server Administrator roles;
from Settings, select Actions→Download audit log. User actions will have a logging ID associated
with them so that you can follow the user’s trail in the audit log. Some actions are performed by
the appliance; those may not have a logging ID.
This is a breakdown of an audit entry:
• DATE TIME,
• Internal component ID,
• <reserved>
• User domain,
• User name/ID,
• Logging ID,
• Task ID,
• Source host/IP,
• Result,
• Action,
• Severity,
