Sun Cluster 3.1 System Administration Guide

How to Add RBAC Authorization to an Existing User Account

Add RBAC authorization to an existing user account to enable the user to log in to SunPlex Manager by using a regular system password.


Note –

If you assign RBAC authorization to a non-root user account, that user account can perform a set of administrative actions usually performed only by root.


  1. Become superuser on any node of the cluster.

  2. Add the following entry to the /etc/user_attr file on all nodes of the cluster.


    # vi /etc/user_attr
    username::::type=normal;auths=solaris.cluster.admin
    

  3. If you are logged in to SunPlex Manager as the root user, exit the browser entirely, then restart it.

  4. Connect to one node of the cluster.

  5. Enter the login (username) and password to access SunPlex Manager.
