NetApp Data Migrator uses Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) to provide secure and efficient management of data migration activities. After setting up control and worker virtual machines (VMs), App Admin users can create and assign roles to new users. This allows new users to log in, view or manage projects, and perform other migration activities, depending on their permissions.
You need to be logged in as App Admin to add a new user, enable or disable an existing user, or reset a user password.

If the new user requires administrator permissions, select the App Admin checkbox.

Select Submit.
-
Select the Copy link (next to the password field) to copy the temporary password, which is displayed in a masked format.
