General
User Name
Names must be text or numeric with no spaces or special characters.
Password
The password must be between 8 and 34 characters.
Role
Roles can be customized using, Role Creation.
Alert Subscriptions
Email Address
Provide an email address to receive storage appliance alerts. Generally speaking you will only want administrative users to receive alerts from the appliances as end-users would be confused or possibly alarmed by an email requesting storage administrative action like replacing a disk. Choose the Subscription level of the mailed Alerts to filter out informational or warning messages that may be unnecessary for you needs.
Web Interface Customization
Web interface tab and section visibility is a convienicence feature and is separate from RBAC/authorization security enforcement. Authorization is controlled by each user's assigned Role. Roles must be created or modified to limit user access to operations.
Advanced Settings
CHAP is an authentication scheme used by Point-to-Point Protocol (PPP) servers to validate the identity of remote clients.
If you provide CHAP settings for a given user account then all storage volumes allocated by that user will have these CHAP credentials automatically associated with them. You can adjust the storage volume CHAP settings in the Advanced Settings dialog when you create a storage volume or in the Modify Storage Volume... dialog.
