Administration Guide
A role is a group of permissions that you can assign to users or groups in Zenoss.
The following table lists available Zenoss roles.
| Role | Definition |
|---|---|
| ZenUser | Provides global read-only access to Zenoss objects. |
| ZenManager | Provides global read-write access to Zenoss objects. |
| Manager | Provides global read-write access to Zenoss objects. Additionally provides read-write access to the underlying Zope object database. |
| ZenOperator | Installed by the ZenOperatorRole ZenPack. This ZenPack is available only to Zenoss Enterprise customers. The ZenOperator role provides users the ability to manage events. Combine the ZenOperator role with the ZenUser role to allow users read-only access to Zenoss, but also allow them to acknowledge events, move events to history, and add log messages to events. |
