Responsibilities of the Foundation Administrator
Tideway Foundation requires little day-to-day administration apart from the initial set-up of the system.
The main responsibilities of the Foundation Administrator are as follows:
- Initial set-up of the appliance, such as configured network settings and name resolution. For more information, see Setting Up.
- Initial set-up and occasional maintenance of data specific to your organization. For more information, see Managing Standard Data.
- Setting up users of the system, their credentials, and security settings. For more information, see Users and Security.
- Initial set-up and occasional maintenance of the discovery process, including which systems to check and which scanning methods to use. For more information, see Configuring Discovery.
- Investigating any problems reported by users and, where necessary, reporting to Tideway to enable rapid resolution of any faults. For details, see Troubleshooting.
These are discussed in detail in subsequent sections of this guide.
All Foundation Administration functions are accessed from the Administration page.
If you have any queries relating to any of the above, contact Tideway Customer Support.
