Manage Tenants
Managing Tenants
Tenants are used to divide and isolate EgoSecure Data Protection Console settings (except Common console branches) and directory objects of several united organizations or several departments of one organization which have one server and database. If no tenants are created, the <Default> tenant is used, which includes all elements of the directory service structure.
Create a Tenant
A tenant is created to assign objects of the directory (domains and OUs) which can be managed by an admin or a super admin who logs in to this tenant.
- Go to Administration | Superadmin | Tenants.
- Click Add
- Change the name if necessary and click Assign AD object (or click in the area of the OU column).
- The Selection of objects dialog appears.
- Select objects and click OK.
- The selected objects appear in the OU column divided with semicolon (;).
- Click Save.
One directory object can only belong to one tenant. Objects deleted from a tenant or objects which do not belong to any tenant, receive the settings of the Default tenant.
Assign a tenant to an administrator or a super administrator
- Go to Administration | Superadmin | Administrators & scopes.
- Select an administrator or a super administrator in the Administrators work area | Administrators (Super Administrators) tab.
- In the Tenants tab, enable tenants.
- Click Save.
One tenant can be managed by several administrators and super administrators and the supervisor.
Switchting Tenants
- Logon to the EgoSecure Server.
- Click OK.
- The Tenant selection dialog appears.
- Select one of the tenants and click OK.
The Console is opened in the same state and with the settings defined for this tenant. The tenant name is displayed on the bottom left part of console window. Click the tenant name to login to another tenant. Administrators and super administrators can see and login only to permitted tenants.
