add that user to the Configuration Administrators group, as described in
"Adding Users to the Configuration Administrators

5.2. Setting Access Permissions on Console Elements

There are five elements defined in the Console for access control rules:
• User and Groups Tab (viewing)
• User and Groups Tab (editing)
• Topology Tab (editing)
• Custom View Tab (editing)
• Server Security (editing)
By default, each of these Console elements has five inherited ACIs:
• Enabling anonymous access
• Default anonymous access
• Configuration administrator's modifications
• Enabling group expansions
• SIE (host) group permissions
These inherited ACIs cannot be edited, but new ACIs can be added for each Console element in
addition to these defaults. Additional ACIs can limit anonymous access, for example, and change
other permissions within the Red Hat Console, which, in turn, affects access to the Directory Server
and Administration Server instances.
To create new ACIs:
1. In the top menu, select Edit and then Preferences.
