Tandberg Data User & Group Management
__________________________________________________________________________________________________
5-3 Tandberg Viking Series Storage Server Administration Manual
• Last name followed by first initial (doej for Jane Doe)
Guidelines must be in place for instances when two users have the same
initials or name. For example, a number can be added to the end of the
username (jdoe1 and jdoe2).
Other conventions can be applied. Just ensure that conventions are both
systematic and consistent.
5.3.2. Managing Group Names
Group management follows many of the same principles as user
management.
It is recommended that group naming conventions be systematic and easy to
understand. Make the group name convey some logical information about
the function or purpose of the group. The following table provides examples
of group names.
Group Name Description
Administrators All designated administrators on the server
Users All standard server users
Power users
All standard server users requiring advanced access
levels
Using tags is a helpful convention that indicates the specific access that a
particular user has to a network resource. For example, if there is a data
share on the device, the network administrator can create a “Data Users
ROnly” group and a “Data Users RWrite” group to contain users that have
read only or read write access on the share, respectively.
5.4. Workgroup User & Group Management
In a workgroup environment, users and groups are managed through the
Microsoft Management Console of the NAS server. Within the Users option,
there are two choices:
• Managing local users
• Managing local groups
User and group administrative tasks include adding, deleting, and modifying
user and group information. Managing local users and managing local
groups.
