Description Sergei Petrosian 2019-12-02 15:14:01 UTC
Document URL: 
https://access.redhat.com/documentation/en-us/red_hat_satellite/6.6/html/administering_red_hat_satellite/chap-red_hat_satellite-administering_red_hat_satellite-users_and_roles

Section Number and Name:
5. Managing Users and Roles

Describe the issue:
A new feature was added to impersonate other users for example to debug permissions.

Suggestions for improvement: 
Add a section describing this new feature.
Note in particular that audits display actions as performed by a user that was impersonated. Audits do not show the user who impersonated another user and did some action. Therefore, this feature must only be used for debugging purposes.
