Modify a role in an access zone

You can modify zone-level roles.

You can only add existing users to a role: the modify role process does not create users for you.

The role workflow navigation bar appears across the top of each role task window. The navigation bar indicates each step in the update process:

Basic settings > Members > Privileges > Summary

OneFS highlights each step as you go. To return to a previous step, click that step in the navigation bar.

  1. Click Access > Membership & Roles > Roles.
  2. In the Roles area, select a role and click View / Edit.
    The Edit role details window appears. The workflow navigation bar Basic settings step is highlighted.
  3. Confirm the role name and description and then click Next.
    The Members window appears and its workflow step is highlighted.
  4. To verify or add role members, click Add Member.
    The Search member dialog box appears.
  5. Select one of following options:
    • Users
    • Groups
    • Well-known SIDs
  6. If you selected User or Group, locate the user or group through one of the following methods:
    • Type the Username or Group Name you want to search for in the text field.
    • Select the authentication provider you want to search for from the Providers list. Only providers that are currently configured and enabled on the cluster are listed.
  7. Click Search.
    A list of users or groups appears in the Search member window.
  8. To add a user or group, select a user name, group name, or a well-known SID from the search results to add as members to the role.
  9. Click Select user.
  10. From the Current access zone list, select the appropriate zone-level role that you want to modify.
    The roles that are associated with that access zone is displayed.
  11. Modify the members as needed and then click Next.
    The Privileges window appears and its workflow step is highlighted.
  12. Modify the privileges as needed by clicking the appropriate permissions in the Permission column.
    Permissions are - (no permission), R (read), X (run), and W (write).
