There are four roles in Lab Management that you can assign to users.

User data (user name, real name, and password) in Lab Management is retrieved from either the Lab Management or Lab Management is retrieved from either the TeamForge (or CEE) application running on another server.

Note: A user with no valid roles is not allowed to access any project resources in the Lab Management Domain.

Listed in the order of minimum-to-maximum number of privileges, the roles are:

Lab Management - User Access

Enables the user to allocate systems that are free (available) and log in to any system in a Project as a regular user. If a system is allocated to the user, she or he has administrative access (root or Administrator access) on that system. This role is assigned at the Project scope.

Lab Management - Root Access

Includes the privileges of the previous role plus administrative access to any system in the Project regardless of who the system owner is. The user can also upload and modify files in the Project Build Library with this level of access. This role is assigned at the Project scope.

Lab Management - Project Admin

Includes the privileges of the previous role plus the ability to re-allocate systems in the user's Project, make certain changes to the user's project, and view project audit logs. This role is assigned at the Project scope.

Lab Management - Domain Admin

Includes the privileges of the Lab Management - Project Admin role in every project in Lab Management plus the right to re-allocate hosts between projects, add and delete hosts and projects, forward ports and URLs on the Lab Management Manager Server, and view user audit logs. Additionally, there are several other site-level configurations such as Port Forwarding and Host URL Mapping that the Lab Management Domain Admin role can perform.
