Hitachi Content Platform System Management Console
Hitachi Content Platform supports two user types:
• Local - User accounts defined and authenticated in the HCP system
• Active Directory - The users, passwords stored in Active Directory and authenticated remotely by AD.
You can create new users to match the user profile in the data collector policy or use existing users with the following roles set.
Local Users
Use the Hitachi Content Platform System Management Console to create a user and enable the Monitor and Search roles. You must also define Security settings to enable the management API to allow access to some of the HCP system settings.
This user ID must be a system-level user and match the User ID entered in the data collector policy.
Monitor grants permission to use the System Management Console to view the HCP system status and most aspects of the system configuration, including tenant configurations.
Search grants permission to use the metadata query API and Search Console to query or search the default namespace and any namespaces owned by HCP tenants that are configured to allow system-level users to manage them and search their namespaces.
Local Users and Active Directory Users
Use the Security settings in the
Hitachi Content Platform System Management Console to enable the Management API Settings (MAPI). This should be enabled at the cluster level.
