Table 1.
While creating or editing a local user with DM role, admin can select one or more device groups that defines the scope for the DM. For example, you (as an administrator) create a DM user named dm1 and assign group g1 present under custom groups. Then dm1 will have operational access to all devices in g1 only. The user dm1 will not be able to access any other groups or entities related to any other devices.
Auditing and logging Power Manager lists all the actions that are performed on the monitored devices in audit logs. Use the OpenManage Enterprise console to generate the audit logs with all the relevant information. You can export the audit log files to a CSV file format. Alerting Automate your actions for the alerts generated, manage the alerts and forward the alerts that are generated in OpenManage Enterprise. For more information, see the Alert policies section in OpenManage Enterprise User's Guide.
