1.3 General procedure for dividing tasks among administrators
With an increase in the number of employees distributed across multiple locations, it becomes increasingly more difficult for a single system administrator to manage devices and hardware assets of the entire company.
To facilitate management of the entire company under this circumstance, you (system administrator) have to divide system management tasks among several administrators by designating an administrator (or administrators) in charge of each task or business department. By specifying the permissions, task allocation, and administration scope for the user account of each administrator, you can limit the scope of information to be managed by each administrator.
You are responsible for monitoring the management status of devices and hardware assets across the entire company and giving instructions to each administrator as necessary. In this way, division of tasks among administrators helps reduce your workload and facilitates efficient management of devices and hardware assets across the entire company.
To divide tasks among administrators:
- 1. Determine the responsibilities of each administrator.
-
Based on the structure and rules of your organization, determine the responsibilities of each administrator.
- 2. Register a user account to be used by each administrator.
