Role based access control
You may have a large enterprise where you use Enterprise Manager to monitor your complete infrastructure such as databases, application servers, packaged applications, and so on. There are Administrators for each of the target types. As an Administrator you are responsible for only WebLogic Server Domains and you want to view/monitor only those targets from Grid Control. How do you do that?
It's simple — Enterprise Manager provides Role Based Access Control. Instead of using the default sysman user, it is recommended that you create users for each of the administrators and grant appropriate privileges. You have to create a user that has access to only the targets you are interested in. Let me assume that you want to create a user named WebLogic that has access to only a few WebLogic servers and let us walk you through how to achieve this.
