Manage access

The Manage access permission allows a user to manage the roles and role permissions for a specific permission category. For example, a user that has View and Manage access for User sessions can view and manage the roles that have access to the User sessions settings and the permissions that those roles have. The user must also have View on the roles they want to select and give access to User sessions.

This permission is available for each permission category. However, for some categories the Manage access functionality is only available from the NetBackup APIs and not the NetBackup web UI (indicated with "API only").

Grant a role the manage access permissions

To grant a role manage access permissions

On the left, select RBAC node and click on the Roles tab.

Select one of the following:

Add a role

Click Add.

Enter a role name and under Select permissions, click Assign.

Update a role

Note: Permissions for Assets, Protection plans, and Credentials can only be edited when you add a role.

Select the role that you want to edit.

For each category that you want the role to have manage access permissions, select the Manage access permission.
For example, you can create a role that can manage access to VMware assets, RHV assets, credentials, and protection plans.
Users that manage access also need Access control permissions.
