Preconfigured User Accounts Enabled by Default

Oracle ILOM arrives with a preconfigured Administrator user account known as root, and a password-recovery user account known as default. For further information about the use of these accounts, see the following table.

Table 6 Local User Accounts Enabled by Default

Preconfigured User Account
Default Login Properties
Description
To modify, see:
root
  • Username: root
  • Password: changeme

The Oracle ILOM root user account is a persistent local user account that is available on all Oracle ILOM interfaces1, unless, you choose to delete the persistent root user account.

Built-in administrative privileges – The root account includes built-in administrative privileges (read and write) for all Oracle ILOM features, functions, and commands.

Recommended security practice – To prevent unauthorized access to the managed server or CMM, you should either:

  • Modify the default root password (changeme) provided on each Oracle ILOM service processor (SP) or chassis monitoring module (CMM).

    - or -

  • Delete the preconfigured root account provided on the Oracle ILOM SP and Oracle ILOM CMM.

    Prior to removing the preconfigured root account, you must replace the root account with a customer-configurable local user account or a directory service such as LDAP or Active Directory.

Note. When the root account password is set to changeme (default password), a warning message appears in the CLI upon logging in and a warning message appears in the top portion of the web interface page.

default
  • Username: default
  • Password: defaultpassword

The preconfigured default user account provided in Oracle ILOM is limited to password recovery.

Local serial console use only – The preconfigured default user account is available for use through a local serial connection only. Also, you must be able to prove physical presence at the server or CMM.

Usage Scenario – If you delete the root account in Oracle ILOM prior to replacing the root account with a customer-configurable account, you can use the default account to log in to Oracle and use the normal Oracle ILOM commands to create a new account.
