Adding user groups to the .mrl file

After creating a new user group, you must add the user group to the existing collector .mrl files:

  1. Go to the MCELL_HOME\etc\cellName\kb\collectors folder.
  2. Open the respective collector .mrl file where the custom user group permission needs to be added.
  3. Within each file is listed read, write, and execute permissions. Add the new group you created under the permissions that you want to assign to the group.
  4. Compile the cell by executing the mccomp –n <cellname> command.
  5. Restart the cell.
  6. Login to the Infrastructure Management Operation Console and check whether the collectors are visible or not.

          'Service Administrators','Service Operators - Senior']
        w['BPPM Monitoring Administrators','BPPM Administrators','Cloud Administrators','BPPM Model Administrators',

          'Service Administrators','Service Operators - Senior']
