Understanding User Accounts and Roles

The Sun StorEdge 6320 System is configured with three user accounts and the Sun StorEdge 6120 Array is configured with three user roles shown in the table. The software enables the admin user or role to authorize users to access the system and the software, and to set passwords for the accounts or roles. The user accounts and roles are as follows:
