Changes to scopes from Abiquo 4.0
- Now administrators assign scopes to Abiquo users. In previous versions, administrators assigned scopes to Abiquo roles and the global scope was the default
- During the upgrade process to version 4.0, Abiquo assigns role scopes to users
- All enterprises must now have a default scope for creating users
- Administrators can now create optional hierarchies of scopes and share resources, such as templates and specs, with tenants at lower levels of their hierarchies
Scope concepts
A Scope is an access list that contains a list of resources (enterprises and/or datacenters) to allow access.
You can use scopes to:
- Create restricted sets of resources for administrators
- Share resources with a group of tenants and an optional tenant hierarchy
- Create a tenant hierarchy for pricing, billing, and cost and usage aggregation, which is useful for resellers and large organizations
