EV80SP2 - allowing access to Monitoring webapp page

[GertjanA]

Hello,

In EV7.5SP2, I could edit the web.config (c:\program files\enterprisevault\monitoringwebapp\ folder) to allow certain users access to the monitoring page.

You had to add
<Authorization>
<allow user="account" >
<deny=" *" >
</authorization

This would allow only the users defined in the allow user line to open the monitoring page, and deny access to everyone else.

In 8.0 this seems to have changed. We have a monitoring group, who is allowed to see the monitoring webpage, and is allowed to stop/start archivingtasks, but that is it.
From the manual, I understand that for users to be able to see the monitoring page, they need to be in the messaging role.
For our purpose, this gives these people to much rights within EV.

Is there another way to have people see the monitoring webpage?
Can I make a customer role with minimal tasks that will allow a group access to the monitoring page?

Anyone already figured this out?

Thanks,

Gertjan

There are two task definitions i could identify:

"EVT Administer Enterprise Vault Operations Manager"
"EVT Manage Enterprise Vault Operations Manager"

Could you try those two?
Sounds very promising :) (Haven't tested, tough...)

Cheers

Hi Michel,

I'm too busy to have found that one. Will check.

Thanks.

Adding a usergroup in these two allows them to access only the monitoring webpage!

Thanks Michel.
