NOTE: This help page may include information about
features not supported by your system. Server Administrator only displays
features that are supported on your system.
Server Administrator gives different privileges to its three user levels.
Server Administrator online help identifies the users who can perform various
tasks using the windows in the GUI.
The three user levels are: User, Power User, and Administrator.
Users can view most information.
Power Users can set warning threshold values and configure which alert
actions are to be taken when a warning or critical event occurs. Power users
can also send e-mails from within Server Administrator.
NOTE:Due to the limitations of the
VMware® ESXi operating system, the alert actions are
disabled.
Administrators can configure and perform shutdown actions, and configure
Auto Recovery actions in case a system has a hung operating system.
Administrators can also clear hardware, event, and command logs. Administrators
can configure locally-attached RAID and non-RAID storage in the Storage
Management Service.
