Managing Users, Groups, and Roles
By default, a system administrator or an administrator with rights at the organization level can add users or
groups to an organization and assign each user or group a role in the organization. The organization
determines which resources (resource pools, hosts, datastores, media stores, host spanning transport
networks, and physical networks) a user can access, and the role determines how a user can interact with those
resources.
Users cannot log in to the Lab Manager system or access any resources until they are added to an organization.
