HP-UX Software Assistant Administration Guide (5900-3003, March 2013)

• Select New...
• From the New Authorizations section of the Users and Authorizations page, select the “Manually
assign toolbox and system/system group authorizations:” radio button.
• In the Select Toolbox(es): area, there are two possible selections for SWA: SWA Privileged
and SWA Tools.
SWA Tools will give the user access to all the SWA tools except the Download Command
option.
SWA Privileged allows the authorized user access to all the SWA tools plus the Download
Command functionality. The Download Command functionality will be run with elevated
privileges. Care must always be taken when giving this authorization to a user. See the
Advanced Options Networking section in “Setting report options for SWA in HP SIM” (page 29)
for more information on how to access the Download Command extended option in HP SIM,
and “Using the download_cmd extended option” (page 23) for an overview.
Selecting both SWA Tools and SWA Privileged is the equivalent of selecting SWA Privileged.
• In the Select Systems: area, the CMS check box must be selected if you want the user to run
the Tools→Software Assistant→Review Jobs... tool, since that tool runs on the CMS.
Use the Add... button to make collections, systems, or both available for selection. Then, select
the collections and systems the user will be allowed to run SWA on.
• Select OK
NOTE: The ability to schedule jobs as described in “Using the SWA scheduling under HP SIM”
(page 26) is not available for authorized users.
