Self service portal integrated with vSphere

Post by panzer »

I have configured SSO in vSphere and added a domain user in Enterprise Manager. Will the user be able to manage all backup jobs, or only the jobs created by the user itself in the Self Service Portal?

Hi Stig,

If you're talking about tenants, then the self-service portal allows managing objects that only belong to a user. This can be configured via delegation settings.

Let me know if that answers your question!

So there is no way that a tenant can manage already existing backup jobs in the Self Service Portal?

Yes, that's correct. Only jobs they create themselves will be visible.

Last question: can the tenant be represented by a group?

Yes, you can either add individual users or a group > Adding Tenant Account
