Working With Local User Accounts
You can set up three levels of local user accounts: guest, user, and administrator. Guests see only the main LMC display. Local Users can operate a partition, but cannot run diagnostic tools, which require access to the physical library. Administrators can access the entire physical library and all of its partitions.
Administrators are responsible for:
•
Setting up and managing users
•
Specifying logging and notification policies
•
Updating software
•
Setting the date and time
•
Importing, exporting, and moving media
•
Any other management associated with the physical library
For information on user accounts that reside on a Lightweight Directory Access Protocol (LDAP) server, see

User Privileges and Library/Partition Functions
The library allows you to interactively control operations, set options, check operating statistics, and diagnose and repair errors. Some operations pertain only to a physical library, some only to a partition, and other functions work for both the physical library and partitions.
summarizes all available commands by privilege level and library and partition environment.
