How to Add Users or Groups to the Report Operator User Role in Operations Manager 2007
Use the following procedure to add users to or remove them from the Report Operator user role in Operations Manager 2007.
Note
Reporting must be installed before you can update the Report Operator user role. For information about how to install Reporting, see How to Deploy Operations Manager 2007 Reporting Using the Setup Wizard.
To add users or groups to the Report Operator user role
Log on to the computer with an account that is a member of the Operations Manager Administrators role for the Operations Manager 2007 Management Group.
In the Operations Console, click the Administration button.
Note
When you run the Operations Console on a computer that is not a Management Server, the Connect To Server dialog box displays. In the Server name text box, type the name of the Operations Manager 2007 Management Server that you want the Operations Console to connect to.
In the Administration pane, expand Administration, expand Security, and then click User Roles.
In the User Roles pane, right-click the existing Report Operator user role from within the User Role list and click Properties.
In the User Role Properties dialog box, on the General page, click Add.
On the Select User or Groups page, enter the users or groups that you want to assign to the user role. Click OK.
Important
Users and groups added to this user role can access all the reports in the Reporting Data Warehouse, including reports from applications such as Microsoft Exchange that use the Reporting Data Warehouse. Failure to restrict access to the Report Operator user role can result in unintended information disclosure.
Click Apply, and then click OK to close the User Role Properties dialog box.
Important
Adding a machine account to a user role member allows all services on that computer to have software development kit (SDK) access. It is recommended that you do not add a machine account to any user role.
