Domain Object Permissions

You configure privileges and permissions to manage user security within the domain. Permissions define the level of access a user has to a domain object. To log in to the Administrator tool, a user must have permission on at least one domain object. If a user has permission on an object, but does not have the domain privilege that grants the ability to modify the object type, then the user can only view the object.
For example, if a user has permission on a node, but does not have the Manage Nodes and Grids privilege, the user can view the node properties, but cannot configure, shut down, or remove the node.
You can configure permissions on the following types of domain objects:
