Security permissions: work with alarm history databases
Use the following table to determine which security permissions are required to work with alarm history databases.
To read from and write to the specific databases that contain alarm and event data, you must know the user name and password associated with the database. You enter this information as part of setting up a database definition.
To do this | Explorer window object | You need these permissions |
|---|---|---|
Work with database definitions | Connections > Databases folder | Common > List Children Common > Read |
Add a new database definition | Connections > Databases folder | Common > Create Children Common > List Children Common > Read Common > Write |
Edit a database definition | Connections > Databases folder | Common > List Children Common > Read Common > Write |
Delete a database definition | Connections > Databases folder | Common > List Children Common > Read Common > Delete Common > Write 1 |
If Common > Read is denied for the Connections folder, the folder is not visible from the Explorer window. If Common > List Children is denied for the Connections folder, Databases folders are not visible. If Common > Write is denied for the Connections folder, the database definition properties cannot be changed. 1 Common > Write permission is required to delete a database definition only if you also want to unregister the alarm servers that are using the database definition. | ||
