By default, the Console agent credentials allow users to access the Advanced View (ONTAP System Manager). You can prompt users for their ONTAP credentials instead. This ensures that a user's ONTAP permissions are applied when they work with ONTAP clusters in both Cloud Volumes ONTAP and ONTAP on-premises clusters.

Note You must have the Organization admin role to edit Console agent settings.
Steps

  1. Select Administration > Agents.
