Roles and report access in multisite environments

This topic describes the roles used for product access in a multisite environment.

The user assigned to the GlobalReportAdmins role at the primary site in a multisite installation has access to all sites in the installation. This user has all authorizations and all permissions.

Before the first ETL run, assign an existing user at the primary site to the GlobalReportAdmins role or create a user at the primary site and assign the user the GlobalReportAdmins role. This user can log on to BMC Decision Support for Server Automation as GlobalReportAdmins and is authorized to assign permissions to other users.

Users at sites other than the primary site (except for users assigned to the GlobalReportAdmins role) only have access to their sites.
