LifeCycle Manager roles and security

There are three levels of users in a LifeCycle Manager environment:

  • LifeCycle Manager Administrators

    Members of this group are allowed to execute all tasks throughout the server environment.

  • Product Installation Administrators

    Members of this group are allowed to administer and perform tasks on a specific product installation, as well as on all product installations that are children to it.

    Note: An administrator group can be defined for each product installation.

    To be able to set the administrator group for a product installation, you need to be administrator for the parent of that product installation (or be a LifeCycle Manager administrator). This exception also applies to the Adding a path and Removing a path tasks.

  • Viewers

    All users that can log on to LifeCycle Manager can view information about managed servers and installed applications. The users, however, are not allowed to perform any task, unless the task is explicitly defined as a viewer task.
