| Subject: | Zenoss Core 5 user role question |
| Author: | Larry Virden |

So, in Zenoss Core Administrator documentation, page 153, there is a table that lists available roles. It lists ZenUser, ZenManager, Manager, and ZenOperator. 4 roles - 2 of which have permissions to do way more than one would want the average user to perform.
The average user would be using ZenUser as a read-only access to the system.
What we want to do is assign some of our operations staff to ZenOperator.
The problem is that when I log in, using a login with the Manager and ZenManager roles, I only see 3 roles.
Since the Core Admin guide, release 5.1.1 lists ZenOperator, I expected to see that role. Is this something I have to create myself
When I use the search widget at the top of zenoss.org, it doesn't return any information on ZenOperator. When I search the guide, it lists ZenOperator 3 or 4 times in the context that leads us to believe that's what we want to set up for giving our operators a look at Zenoss.
We would appreciate tips.
Thank you
We are using this version of Zenoss.

So, with the sound of deafening crickets in my ears, we continue to experient with the unknown by the unknowing in hopes of finding some sort of solutions.
We found an excellent Core 4.x article by Ms. Curry talking about creating user roles. We have no idea what all the permission descriptions mean, but we tried to create a new role. And in fact it appears to be there.
When we try to use it though, Zenoss is unhappy. We try to give the role to a user, and Zenoss says:
Type:
Value: 'OCC'
Traceback (most recent call last): File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ZPublisher/Publish.py", line 126, in publish request, bind=1) File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ZPublisher/mapply.py", line 77, in mapply if debug is not None: return debug(object,args,context) File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/ZPublisher/Publish.py", line 46, in call_object result=apply(object,args) # Type sto step into published object. File "/opt/zenoss/Products/ZenModel/UserSettings.py", line 861, in manage_editUserSettings roleManager.assignRoleToPrincipal(role, self.id) File " ", line 8, in assignRoleToPrincipal File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/AccessControl/requestmethod.py", line 70, in _curried return callable(*args, **kw) File "/opt/zenoss/lib/python2.7/site-packages/Products/PluggableAuthService/plugins/ZODBRoleManager.py", line 305, in assignRoleToPrincipal role_info = self._roles[ role_id ] # raise KeyError if unknown! KeyError: 'OCC'
We have tried to do the assignment as "admin", as well as ourselves (which have manager, zenmanager, etc.) privs and to no avail.
While many of our readers may be participating in the festivities at Austin, perhaps between fun times, someone will think of a useful suggestion for resolving this frustrating issue.
Thank you so much, and Zenparty on!
