11.1. User Roles

There are three user roles available for Web Administration.

  1. Admin: The Admin role gives complete rights to the user to manage all Web Administration operations.
  2. Normal User: The Normal User role authorizes the user to perform operations such as importing cluster and enabling or disabling volume profiling but restricts managing users and other administrative operations.
  3. Read-only User: Read-only: The Read-only User role authorizes the user to only view and monitor cluster-wide metrics and readable data. The user can launch Grafana dashboards from the Web Administration interface but is restricted to perform any storage operations. This role is suited for users performing monitoring tasks.
