User Accounts
InForm OS Version 2.2.4 3PAR InForm OS CLI Administrator’s Manual
If you are using 3PAR Virtual Domains for access control, you will also need to assign users
privileges over domains that you have set up in your system (see Chapter 6, Managing Virtual
Domains for instructions on creating domains). These users are referred to as domain users.
The combination of privilege level and assigned domain determines the domain user’s level of
accessibility within the system. For information about domains and domain user privileges, see
the InForm OS Concepts Guide.
4.1.1 Creating a User
X To create a new user, issue the createuser -c|-e <password> <user_name>
<domain_name> <user_class>
command, where:
 -c|-e <password> is either a clear-text (-c) or encrypted (-e) password. The
<password> must be a minimum of six characters in length.
 <user_name> is the name of the newly created user.
 <domain_name> is the name of the domain to which the newly created user will
belong. If you are not using domains, specify all. If you are using domains, specify the
name of an existing domain in your system.
 <user_class> is specified as super, browse, or edit and establishes the new user’s
level of accessibility within the specified domain.
For additional information about user privilege levels and domains, see the InForm OS
Concepts Guide.
NOTE: If the first user created does not have sufficient privileges to create
additional users, operations are limited to what the first user can do. Therefore, it
is recommended that the first user be created with superuser privileges by
specifying
super for your user class when issuing the createuser command.
See the 3PAR InForm OS Command Line Interface Reference for additional
information about the
createuser command.
NOTE: By default, users in systems not using domains fall into the all domain.
For additional details about the
all domain, see the InForm OS Concepts Guide.
