Assigning Users To A Volume
By assigning Users to a Volume, you give them permission to use the resources of the Volume. If the User has permission to add Hosts, then the User will be able to add Hosts to a Volume he/she has been assigned to. The resources include Disk space (Quota) and the number of different Agent license types a User can add to the Volume.
 | Notice You must be a Super User to assign Users to a Volume. |
 | Note Create Users before assigning them to Volumes. Read more about Adding Users. |
