Hi,

From Redfish 1.16.0 specification mention, optional standard roles including :

SystemAdministrator => Privileges [Login, ConfigureSelf, AdministrateSystems]
SystemOperator => Privileges [Login, ConfigureSelf, OperateSystems]
StorageAdministrator => Privileges [Login, ConfigureSelf, AdministrateStorage]
StorageBackupOperator => Privileges [Login, ConfigureSelf, OperateStorageBackup]

As you can see above, new privileges including :

AdministrateSystems
OperateSystems
AdministrateStorage
OperateStorageBackup

Not sure if you will plan add these new privileges into new public privilege registry version (Redfish_1.x.x_PrivilegeRegistry.json) ?

Or, should manufacturer manually add them into the privilege registry?

At this time, we don't have plans on adding them ourselves to the registry. These sorts of roles start creeping into domains that are typically defined by a vendor; an operation that vendor A might classify as "OperateSystems" might be considered "AdministrateSystems" for vendor B. It becomes even more complicated when third party providers start overlaying their own functionality on top of this.

The "Storage" roles might see some traction coming out of SNIA in the future for their storage management use cases.
