Who primarily uses the 'readonly' VPLEX RBAC role?

The 'readonly' VPLEX RBAC (Role-Based Access Control) role is primarily designed for individuals who need to monitor the system without making any changes. This role allows users to view configurations, status, and other critical information about the VPLEX system, enabling them to perform oversight and monitoring tasks effectively. These users typically do not have the privileges to alter settings or configurations, making it ideal for those who need to observe operations but do not require action capabilities.

In contrast, other roles, such as EMC service personnel, system administrators, and users performing standard management, usually include permissions that allow for configuration changes, management tasks, or service interventions. These roles are more active in nature, focusing on modifying or managing the system rather than merely observing it. Therefore, the designation of the 'readonly' role specifically caters to those whose responsibilities are limited to monitoring, providing them necessary visibility into the system without the risk of unintended changes.
