These buttons let you perform actions on this page:
- CANCEL – Closes the page without saving any changes.
- DONE – Saves the changes and closes the page.
- APPLY – Saves the changes but does not close the page.
- RESET – Displayed only when editing one of the default roles (HPCAdmin, HPCUser, NitroAdmin, NitroUser, RemoteVizAdmin, and RemoteVisUser).
