Assigning permissions to user groups for a perspective

Last published : Jun 19, 2026

For the Availability perspective, the root user can also assign the Operator role. The user groups having the Operator role can perform operations such as taking a service group online or offline, freezing or unfreezing a service group, or running the high availability and disaster recovery fire drill.
