Server Administrator gives different privileges to its three user levels. Server Administrator online help identifies the users who can perform various tasks using the windows in the GUI.
The three user levels are:
- Users — can view most information.
- Power Users — can set warning threshold values and configure which alert actions are to be taken when a warning or critical event occurs. Power users can also send email from within Server Administrator.
NOTE: Due to the limitations of the VMware ESXi operating system, the alert actions are disabled.
- Administrators — can configure and perform shutdown actions, and configure Auto Recovery actions in case system operating system is not responding. Administrators can also clear hardware, event, and command logs. Administrators can configure locally attached RAID and non-RAID storage in the Storage Management Service.
