segregation of EV admin/operations roles by EV server

I've got 3 EV servers in a single site design. 2 servers are in branch offices across a WAN. Is it possible to use EV athorization manager?(RBAC) to delgate admin rights based on EV Server? Anyone done anything like that. i.e manage multiple EV servers in a distributed locations but single EV site

  • i think if you right click the servers you can select what admins have access to the server itself

  • Right click your Enterprise Vault Server -> Properties -> Admin Permissions

  • thanks m8. It's funny how EV has the similar settings all over the place. Sometimes it's almost like configuring Group policy :)

  • Hey Merv,

    I would recommend using groups, that way you can just modify the group in AD and not have to continually update the property pages whenever a change is necessary. This will also keep orphaned entries from being present in the event a user leaves and their account is disabled.Not sure if you have seen this article:

    I put this article together quite a while ago, not sure if it would help:

    and I mention that in the Admin Permissions Property Page section.
