Creating per-VDOM administrators

Per-VDOM administrator accounts only allow administrative access to specific VDOMs. By creating per-VDOM administrators, you allow both Company A and Company B to manage their respective VDOMs without allowing access to settings for other VDOMs or the global settings.

  1. To create a per-VDOM administrator for VDOM-A, go to System > Administrators and select Create New > Administrator.

  2. Enter a Username and set Type to Local User. Enter and confirm a Password. Set Administrator Profile to prof_admin.

    Note

    You must use either the prof_admin or a custom profile for per-VDOM administrators.

  3. Remove the root VDOM from the Virtual Domains list and add VDOM-A.

  4. Repeat the above steps to create a per-VDOM administrator for VDOM-B.
