Customer configuration subfolders

SA Administrators for HP-UX Provisioning or any user who has privileges to the following folder must create a sample configuration for every customer for whom users want to create configurations:

Library > By Folder> Opsware > Tools > OS Provisioning > HP-UX Provisioning

The sample configuration is the same as the configuration that is created when you use the Custom Configuration Editor APX. It is called the sample configuration because it is the first configuration created for each new customer. When the first configuration is created, a subfolder is created for that new customer. If the SA Administrator wants to assign restricted access to a user/group based on configurations belonging to a specific customer, they must grant permission to that customer subfolder.

The SA Administrator can see subfolders created with the customer name only after creating the sample configuration.

When you create the sample configuration, make sure that you select the new customer so that the subfolder with the customer name is created immediately within the configuration folder. The SA Administrator can assign read/write access to the user/group to access configurations. For example, say that PROV_USR needs access to HP-UX Provisioning and should have access only to configurations belonging to CustA and CustB customers:

  1. Open the Custom Configuration Editor APX using Internet Explorer.
  2. Log on as SA Administrator or as any user who has access to Library > By Folder > Opsware > Tools > OS Provisioning > HP-UX Provisioning
  3. Create a sample configuration for CustA and CustB using the Custom Configuration Editor APX.
  4. Log on to the SA client as SA Administrator for HP-UX Provisioning. Create subfolders named CustA and CustB at the following location:

    Library > By Folder > Opsware > Tools > OS Provisioning >
    HP-UX Provisioning/CustA

    Library > By Folder > Opsware > Tools > OS Provisioning >
    HP-UX Provisioning/CustB
