Administrator's and User's Guide for SFM HP-UX 11i v3 September 2012

The EMT supports the following user groups:
• Administrator
• Non-administrator
In the CLI, any user with superuser privileges is an administrator. However, in the HP System
Management Homepage (HP SMH) GUI, the user groups in EMT are mapped internally to the user
groups defined in the HP SMH.
The Administrator user group in the HP SMH maps to administrators in EMT. The Operator and
the User user groups in the HP SMH map to non-administrators in EMT.
For information about configuring user groups in HP SMH, see the HP System Management
Homepage User’s Guide at:
