You can automatically assign owners for all laptop clients that belong to a CommCell environment. Owners have complete access to their data on the laptop. If the owner or the laptop is associated with a server plan, then the owner can backup and restore data.
Note
For a Linux laptop, you cannot automatically assign an owner. You must manually add the user as an owner.
By default, the following users are automatically assigned as owners of the laptop and have privileges to access the Web Console or the Edge Monitor tool:
-
Active Directory users who are the administrators of the Windows or macOS client computer
-
The user account that was used to install the Laptop Backup package
