Managing system users and groups

Step

Action

1

Log on to the Nortel SNAS cluster.

In this example the cert_admin user, who is a member of the
certadmin group, will add the admin user to the certadmin
group. The example assumes that the admin user previously
removed himself or herself from the certadmin group, in order
to fully separate the Administrator user role from the Certificate
Administrator user role.

login: cert_admin

Password:

(

cert_admin

user password)

2

Access the User Menu.

>> Main# /cfg/sys/user

---------------------------------------------------

---------

[User Menu]

passwd - Change own password

list - List all users

del - Delete a user

add - Add a new user

edit - Edit a user

caphrase - Certadmin export passphrase

>> User#

3

Assign the admin user certadmin user rights by adding the admin
user to the certadmin group.

>> User# edit admin

>> User admin# groups/add

Enter group name: certadmin

ATTENTION

A user must be assigned to at least one group at any given time.
If you want to replace a user’s single group assignment, you must
therefore always first add the user to the desired new group, then
remove the user from the old group.

4

Verify and apply the changes.
