Administering User Accounts, Roles, and Permissions in BCM

This quick reference guide provides essential information for administering user accounts, roles, and permissions within the Base Command Manager (BCM) as part of the NVIDIA-Certified Professional: AI Operations certification.

Key Concepts

User Accounts: Individual accounts that allow users to access the BCM system.
Roles: Defined sets of permissions that can be assigned to user accounts, determining what actions users can perform.
Permissions: Specific rights granted to roles that dictate access to resources and functionalities within BCM.

Assigning Permissions to Roles: When creating or editing a role, select the appropriate permissions that align with the role's responsibilities.
Reviewing Permissions: Regularly audit roles and permissions to ensure they align with current user needs and security policies.

Best Practices

Regularly review user accounts and roles to maintain security and efficiency.
Implement the principle of least privilege, granting users only the permissions necessary for their tasks.
