Before Bastionhost users can perform O&M operations on hosts, the administrator must create O&M rules to authorize the users to perform O&M operations on specified hosts and host accounts. This topic describes how to create O&M rules.
Authorize hosts
To authorize hosts for a user, follow these steps:
- Find the target user and click Authorize Hosts in the Actions column.
- In the Authorize Hosts pane that appears, select one or more hosts you want to authorize for the user to maintain and click OK.
Authorize the accounts of a single host
To authorize the accounts of a single host for a user, follow these steps:
- Find the target user and click Authorize Hosts in the Actions column.
- On the Authorized Hosts tab that appears, find the target host and click the information in the Authorized Accounts column.
Authorize the accounts of multiple hosts
To authorize the accounts of multiple hosts for a user at a time, follow these steps:
- Find the target user and click Authorize Hosts in the Actions column.
- On the Authorized Hosts tab that appears, select the target hosts and select Batch Authorize Accounts from the Batch drop-down list.
- In the Batch Authorize Accounts pane that appears, specify Accounts.
Note Currently, you can select only one host account at a time during the authorization of host accounts.
