Which type of operators are allowed to create an analysis?

The HCL BigFix platform utilizes a granular Role-Based Access Control (RBAC) model for managing operator privileges. The ability to create, edit, or delete an analysis is not granted to all operators by default. This specific capability is controlled by the "Can Manage Analyses" permission. While Master Operators possess this permission inherently, it can also be assigned to Non-Master Operators through custom roles. Therefore, the defining requirement is having the specific permission, not the operator's master or non-master status.

A. Not all console operators have this permission. It must be explicitly granted through a role, unless the operator is a Master Operator.

B. Non-Master Operators can also be granted the "Can Manage Analyses" permission, so this capability is not exclusive to Master Operators.

C. Master Operators have all permissions by default, including the ability to manage analyses, making this statement incorrect.

1. HCL BigFix Platform 10.0 Documentation

"Managing operators and roles" > "Console Permissions": This section details the specific permissions available to console operators. It lists "Can Manage Analyses" and describes its function: "Allows the operator to create

edit

and delete analyses." This directly confirms that a specific permission is required.

2. HCL BigFix Platform 10.0 Documentation

"Managing operators and roles" > "Operator": This section describes the two types of operators: Master and Non-Master. It clarifies that Master Operators have all permissions

while Non-Master Operators' permissions are determined by their assigned roles

reinforcing that the permission itself is the key factor.
