Device Group Permissions Portal
The device group permissions portal configures the OmeSiteAdministrators role and assigns device
group permissions to members of the OmeSiteAdministrators role. The portal is only visible and
editable for OmeAdministrators. The following sections are instructions on the use of the device group
permissions portal.
Editing Members of OmeSiteAdministrators
The members of the OmeSiteAdministrators role have limited system update and remote tasks targets
based on assigned device groups. This limits what device groups a user can target when creating and
executing system update and remote tasks. The following sections provide instructions on how to edit
the members of the OmeSiteAdministrators role.
Add New User
An administrator can add users that have never logged into OpenManage Essentials by using the device
group permissions portal. To add a new user that has not logged into the OpenManage Essentials
console, use the following steps.
1. Navigate to the device group permissions portal (under ‘Preferences’).
2. Click ‘Edit Members of OmeSiteAdministrators’.
