Managing Users, User Groups, and User Rights

Understanding Default User Groups, Users, and Roles
The User Management view displays all user groups and users. The user groups created during
the server installation are as follows:
• Administrators, with the user Administrator: Users with administrator rights. When you first
log in after the first installation, if you have not yet imported Windows Domain or LDAP
server users, the only user displayed is the user “Administrator” with administrator rights.
This user cannot be deleted, nor can the user rights be restricted in any way.
• Everyone: All users. This group contains the master user for every user in all the other
groups. The master user in the Everyone group is the original user object. Instances of a user
in other groups are linked to the master user. By default, the group role is set to No Access.
The following illustration shows the master user for Administrator in the Everyone group
and a link to the master user in the Administrators group. The icon for the linked user
includes a link symbol.
• Imported Users: Users imported from Avid Unity, Windows Domain or LDAP (see
“Setting
User Authentication Providers and Importing Users” on page 109
). By default, the group
roles are set as follows:
- LDAP: No Access.
- MICROSOFT: No Access.
- UNITY: Read Access.
• Migrated Users: The group for users migrated from an Avid Unity MediaManager
environment to an Interplay environment. By default, the group role is set to No Access. For
more information on migrating users from an Avid Unity MediaManager environment to an
Interplay environment, see your Avid representative.
