Creating and Assigning SME Roles Using DCNM-SAN

For detailed information on creating and assigning roles, refer to the Security Configuration Guide, Cisco DCNM for SAN and the Cisco MDS 9000 Family NX-OS Security Configuration Guide.

Note SME role names must begin with “sme.” For example, valid role names could be sme-admin, sme-recovery, or sme-admin-vsan1.

You need to create a SME role and then assign users to the SME role.

To create a SME role, follow these steps:

1. Click the Admin tab. Select Management Users and select Local.

The Add Local User dialog box is displayed.

2. Type the username.

3. From the role drop-down menu, select one of the options: network-admin, server-admin, sme-admin, sme-recovery, or sme-stg-admin.

4. Type the password and confirm the password.

5. Click Add.
