<title>Manage projects and users</title>
|
|
<para>As a cloud administrator, you manage both projects and
|
|
users. Projects are organizational units in the cloud to which
|
|
you can assign users. Projects are also known as <emphasis
|
|
role="italic">tenants</emphasis> or <emphasis
|
|
role="italic">accounts</emphasis>.You can manage projects
|
|
and users independently from each other.</para>
|
|
<para>Users are members of one or more projects.</para>
|
|
<para>During cloud set up, the operator defines at least one
|
|
project, user, and role. The operator links the role to the
|
|
user and the user to the project. Roles define the actions
|
|
that users can perform. As an administrator, you can create
|
|
additional projects and users as needed.</para>
|
|
<para>Learn how to add, update, and delete projects and users,
|
|
assign users to one or more projects, and change or remove the
|
|
assignment. To enable or temporarily disable a project or
|
|
user, update that project or user. You can also change quotas
|
|
at the project level. For information, see <xref
|
|
linkend="dashboard_set_quotas"/>.</para>
|
|
<para>When you create a user account, you must assign the account
|
|
to a primary project. Optionally, you can assign the account
|
|
to additional projects. Before you can delete a user account,
|
|
you must remove the user account from its primary
|
|
project.</para>
