Changing a user’s permissions

A user’s permissions are determined by their user group. You change the permissions by changing
the user group to which the user is assigned. A user can belong to multiple user groups.

For example, one user has the security view permission and you want to change this to the storage
modify permission. In this case, add this user to the storage modify build-in group and then remove
the user from the security view build-in group. If you change permissions of a logging in user, the
change takes effect from the next time the user logs in.

Prerequisites

You must have the Security Administrator (View & Modify) role to perform this task.

A user must belong to at least one user group.
