EMC® VNX® Series Security Configuration Guide for VNX

VNX for file CLI role-based access

The administrative user account you use to access the command line interface is associated with specific privileges, also referred to as roles. A role defines the privileges (operations) a user can perform on a particular VNX object. The ability to select a predefined role or define a custom role that gives a user certain privileges is supported for users who access VNX through the CLI, EMC Unisphere™, and the XML API.

VNX for File CLI role-based access provides detailed information about how role-based access is used to determine which of the VNX for file CLI commands a particular user can execute.
