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.

Username: root Password: changeme
|
The Oracle ILOM root user
account is a persistent local user account that is available on
all Oracle ILOM interfaces,
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. |

|
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.
