Viewing and modifying managed system information

You can view managed system details on the Managed system information page. Depending on how the managed system is configured, you may be able to modify some managed system information.

Only product administrators with the "Manage orphan managed systems" right can modify managed systems that are not assigned to a managed system policy .

To view or modify managed system information:

  1. Click Manage the system > Privileged access > Managed systems.

    Bravura Privilege displays a list of managed managed systems.
