Users

Types of users  Top

ContentDirector defines three types of users:

System administrators  Top

System administrators have access to all resources in ContentDirector. Only system administratosrs can create other system administrators, domains, domain administrators, and sources.

Domain administrators  Top

Domain administrators are like system administrators within their respective domains. They have access to all resources within the domain.

Domain administrators can coordinate the activities of users within their domain, to ensure optimal timing of bandwidth usage and physical resources.

Regular users  Top

Regular users' rights are defined by the user groups to which they belong, with one exception: Regular users always have full access to resources they create, no matter how the group access rights and memberships are altered.

Regular users typically constitute the majority of ContentDirector users.
