Disabling resource-access control

You disable access control for all devices or specific devices so that all users can view and act on those devices.

About this task

Only users with lxc-supervisor, lxc-security-admin, or lxc-recovery authority can perform this action.

Procedure

Complete the following steps to disable resource-access control.

  • For all managed devices

    1. From the main Lenovo XClarity Administrator menu, click Administration > Security.

    2. Click Resource View in the left navigation pane. The Resource View page is displayed.

    3. Click the Enabled toggle to change Resource Access Control to disabled.
  • For specific managed devices

    1. From the main XClarity Administrator menu, click Administration > Security.

    2. Click Resource View in the left navigation pane. The Resource View page is displayed.

      You can sort the table columns to make it easier to find specific devices. In addition, you can select a device type in the Resource Type drop-down menu, select a role group in the Role Groups drop-down menu, select a resource group in the Resource Groups drop-down menu, and enter text (such as a resource name or type) in the Filter field to list only those devices that meet the selected criteria.

    3. Select one or more devices to which you want to change access.

    4. Click the Edit icon (Edit icon). The Edit Resource dialog is displayed with the selected devices listed in the Resource Name field.

    5. Set Public Access to Yes. This means that all role groups can access the target devices regardless of the roles groups that are listed in the Role Groups drop-down list.

    6. Click Save.
