Safes

Safe directly regulates user access to monitored servers. It specifies available protocols’ features, policies and other details concerning users and servers relations.

Adding a safe

Warning

Data model objects: safes, users, servers, accounts and listeners are replicated within the cluster and object instances must not be added on each node. In case the replication mechanism fails to copy objects to other nodes, contact technical support department.

Note

• The system safe can only contain system account.
• The portal safe can only contain the portal account.
• Operator, admin and superadmin users always have access to the system safe.
• User type users cannot have access to the system safe.
