Searching the Directory Tree

Searching the Directory Tree

Subject

The searching functionality is available from the Directory panel. The search results appear as a tree under the Search request node.

If you execute several search requests, they all appear as a node in the tree.

  • In classic administration mode: "Security object administrator" or "Access administrator" or "Rights administrator" or "Smart card administrator".

Managing administrators

Subject

This section describes how to delegate, transfer and delete administration profiles. Administration profiles are a set of administration rights; they allow you to manage all the users who are allowed to administer the One IdentityEAM solution through EAM Console.

An administration role is made up of the following elements:

  • The scope of the administration role: the objects of the directory to which the role applies.
  • One or several administration profile(s): the administration rights allocated to the administration role.
  • A parent administrator (optional).
  • An audit filter that indicates what administrator actions should be audited.

EAM Console allows you to assign administration profiles to users so that they can perform the administration tasks corresponding to their role in the company.
