How to configure Users management and Mail Server Settings on OpManager

To configure Users management and Mail Server Settings on OpManager?

User management:

You can create users in OpManager and provide required privileges to them. The option to create users is available only for the admin login account or those accounts which have 'Full Control' privilege

Mail server setting:

OpManager allows you to configure e-mail alerts to get notified on any fault in your network. The send email feature uses the mail server settings configured here as the default setting for email alerts across OpManager. However, specific requirements can be configured while setting up a profile for each feature, i.e. Notification Profile, Schedule Reports, etc

In my case already installed on server and chek the service status of OpManager on terminal using the command

[root@opmanager ~]# systemctl status OpManager
