Resource Group Types
A resource group defines the resources that will be made available to a user. Every resource added to IBM Spectrum Protect Plus can be included in a resource group, along with individual IBM Spectrum Protect Plus functions and screens. This gives you the ability to finely-tune the experience of a user. For example, a resource group could include an individual hypervisor, with access to only backup and reporting functionality. When the resource group is associated with a role and a user, the user will only see the screens associated with backup and reporting for the assigned hypervisor.
The following resource types and subtypes are available.
