system: file systems, file services, or file system related
features and functions, storage devices and their components.
Also, the Global Administrator creates and manages SMU user
profiles (Server Administrators, Storage Administrators,
Server+Storage Administrators, and other Global
Administrators). Global Administrators also control what
servers and storage devices each administrator can access.
• Storage Administrators manage storage devices, as
specified in the administrator profile created by the Global
Administrator.
Storage Administrators can manage only storage devices and
their components (racks, physical disks, SDs, and storage
pools). Storage Administrators cannot manage file systems,
file services, or file system related features and functions, and
they cannot manage users.
• Server Administrators manage servers and clusters, as
specified in the administrator profile created by the Global
Administrator. Server Administrators cannot manage storage
devices.
Server Administrators can manage file systems and file
services such as CIFS Shares, NFS Exports, and they can
manage file system related features and functions such as
snapshots, quotas, and migration policies and schedules.
• Server+Storage Administrators manage servers, clusters,
and storage devices, as specified in the administrator profile
created by the Global Administrator.

Administrators and Storage Administrators can manage: file
systems, file services, or file system related features and
functions, and they can also manage storage devices and their
components.
• If the User Type is Local, you can modify the password.
• If the User Type is RADIUS, you cannot modify the password,

CLI Access check box.
• If the User Level is Storage, Server, or Server+Storage, you
can add or remove servers from the user's scope of
management.

storage. Non-global users cannot be given CLI access.
