Managing the User Accounts

To manage user accounts, you use the Account window (see

operations that can be performed in the Account window differ depending on the operation
privileges that are set for the Account Administrator role.

CAUTION:

If you have changed the setting for user accounts, you must back up the Remote Web

Console configuration file by downloading the file from the SVP. For instructions on downloading
the configuration file, see

“Downloading the Configuration Files” (page 105)
