Logging in/out and Security

SANscape's logging in and logging out functions provide security within the program. The security levels are established by setting up three users: ssmon, ssadmin, and ssconfig, each with a password.

  • ssmon represents the monitoring level of the software; it displays alerts from the controller.
  • ssadmin represents the administration level; it provides access to Rebuild, Parity Check and Schedule parity Check functions as well as monitoring.
  • ssconfig represents the configuration level; it provides access to the configuration commands and all aspects of the program.
  1. To log in, select File > Login.

    Maintain continuous access only as the monitoring user. When you select a command that requires the administration or configuration level, a login dialog box is displayed and you log into that level with the appropriate password. After completing your activity, log out.

  2. To log out, select File > Logout.

    When you log out from the administration or configuration level, you are given the option of logging out to the monitoring mode or logging out of the server entirely.
