UCS locales define the location of the user in the UCS organization hierarchy. A user without a locale assignment has access to the root organization. This means that the user has access to all sub-organizations. Locales can be mapped to the sub-organization, restricting the user access within the scope of the sub-organization. Locales can be created and then the user can be mapped to locales.

Perform the following steps to create a locale and restrict some users access to a sub-organization:

1. Log in to UCS Manager.
2. Click to expand the Admin tab in the navigation pane.
3. On the Admin tab, click on User Management to expand User Services.

4. Right-click on Locales in the navigation pane and click on Create Locale:

5. Assign a Name for the locale and click on Next:

6. Expand Organizations in the left-hand side pane and select the locale in the right-hand side pane:

7. Click on Finish.

The new locale will be available which can be used by any locally or remotely authenticated users. Once the locale is assigned to the users/groups, the access will be limited to the sub-organization.

To assign a locale to remote Active Directory authenticated users/groups, perform the following procedure:

1. Log in to UCS Manager.
2. Click on the Admin tab in the navigation pane.
3. On the Admin tab, click on User Management to expand the LDAP content.
4. Select the existing AD group and double-click on it to edit the settings.
