You can use the ``acl`` subcommand to manage and monitor user permissions. For
example, the command below will add the user ``john@pbs`` as a
**DatastoreAdmin** for the data store ``store1``, located at ``/backup/disk1/store1``:
.. code-block:: console
# proxmox-backup-manager acl update /datastore/store1 DatastoreAdmin --userid john@pbs
You can monitor the roles of each user using the following command:
.. code-block:: console
# proxmox-backup-manager acl list
┌──────────┬──────────────────┬───────────┬────────────────┐
│ ugid │ path │ propagate │ roleid │
╞══════════╪══════════════════╪═══════════╪════════════════╡
│ john@pbs │ /datastore/disk1 │ 1 │ DatastoreAdmin │
└──────────┴──────────────────┴───────────┴────────────────┘
A single user can be assigned multiple permission sets for different data stores.
.. Note::
Naming convention is important here. For data stores on the host,
you must use the convention ``/datastore/{storename}``. For example, to set
permissions for a data store mounted at ``/mnt/backup/disk4/store2``, you would use
``/datastore/store2`` for the path. For remote stores, use the convention
``/remote/{remote}/{storename}``, where ``{remote}`` signifies the name of the
remote (see `Remote` below) and ``{storename}`` is the name of the data store on
the remote.
