DESCRIPTION

Use the account ‑modify command to change any of the following fields for administrator‑defined accounts:
  • Full name

  • Password duration

  • Email address

  • Phone number

  • Account name

  • Role

  • Account availability status (enabled or disabled)

Disabling an account that has active sessions does not terminate the sessions. You cannot change the Primary administrator role that is permanently assigned to the /⁠administrator account. Also, you cannot change the Oracle Customer Support role that is permanently assigned to the /⁠pillar account.

If one or more administrators are logged in to a specific account, you cannot modify the role for that account until all of the administrators log out. However, changes to the other fields are permitted, including resetting the password and disabling the account. These changes take effect immediately after the administrators end their sessions.

When logging in, if a non-primary administrator fails to enter the correct password after making a maximum number of attempts, the Oracle FS System automatically disables the account. Use the system ‑modify ‑maximumFailedLogins command to change the maximum number of failed attempts that are permitted before an account is disabled. Because the default /⁠⁠administrator and /⁠pillar accounts are required for basic administration, that account cannot be disabled even if the maximum number of failed attempts has been reached. To prevent security breaches, frequently change the passwords of the /⁠administrator and /pillar accounts and provide access to the current password through a restricted site.

To enable an administrator-defined account that has been disabled, log in with the /⁠administrator account or an Administrator 1 account and run the account ‑modify ‑enable command.

To disable an account, run the account ‑modify ‑disable command.

Note: Only administrators with primary administrator, admin1, admin2, or support roles are authorized to run the account modify command.
