Item Description
Storage Unit The name of your DD Boost Storage Unit. You may optionally change this name.
User For the default DD Boost user, either select an existing user, or select Create a new Local User, and enter their User name, Password, and Management Role. This role can be one of the following:
  • Admin role: Lets you configure and monitor the entire protection system.
  • User role: Lets you monitor systems and change your own password.
  • Security role: In addition to user role privileges, lets you set up security-officer configurations and manage other security-officer operators.
  • Backup-operator role: In addition to user role privileges, lets you create snapshots, import and export tapes to, or move tapes within a DD VTL.
  • None role: Intended only for DD Boost authentication, so you cannot monitor or configure a system. None is also the parent role for the SMT tenant-admin and tenant-user roles. None is also the preferred user type for DD Boost storage owners. Creating a new local user here only allows that user to have the "none" role.
