Creating authentication broker accounts on root broker system

On the root broker system, the administrator must create an authentication broker
(AB) account for each node in the cluster.

To create authentication broker accounts on root broker system

1

Determine the root broker domain name. Enter the following command on
the root broker system:

venus> #

vssat showalltrustedcreds

For example, the domain name resembles "Domain Name:
[email protected]" in the output.

2

For each node in the cluster, verify whether an account exists on the root
broker system.

For example, to verify that an account exists for node galaxy:

venus> #

vssat showprpl --pdrtype root \

--domain [email protected] --prplname galaxy

If the output displays the principal account on root broker for the
authentication broker on the node, then delete the existing principal
accounts. For example:

venus> #

vssat deleteprpl --pdrtype root \

--domain [email protected] \

--prplname galaxy --silent
