Siebel Analytics Server Administration Guide > Security in Siebel Analytics > Analytics Security Manager > Working with UsersUser accounts can be defined explicitly in a Siebel Analytics Server repository or in an external source (such as a database table or an LDAP server). However user accounts are defined, users need to be authenticated by the Siebel Analytics Server for a session to take place, unless the Siebel Analytics Server administrator has configured the system to bypass Siebel Analytics Server security. (See Bypassing Siebel Analytics Server Security for details.) Users defined explicitly in a repository can access business models in that repository, but they cannot span repositories. The Siebel Analytics Server Administrator user account is created automatically when a repository is created and cannot be deleted. For more information on the Administrator user account, see Siebel Analytics Server Administrator Account.

Siebel Analytics Server Administrator AccountThe Siebel Analytics Server Administrator account (user ID of Administrator) is a default user account in every Siebel Analytics Server repository. This is a permanent account. It cannot be deleted or modified other than to change the password and logging level. It is designed to perform all administrative tasks in a repository, such as importing physical schemas, creating business models, and creating users and groups. NOTE: The Siebel Analytics Server Administrator account is not the same as the Windows NT and Windows 2000 Administrator account. The administrative privileges granted to this account function only within the Siebel Analytics Server environment. When you create a new repository, the Administrator account is created automatically and has no password assigned to it. You should assign a password for the Administrator account as soon as you create the repository. The Administrator account created during the installation of the Siebel Analytics repository, that is, the repository shipped with Siebel Analytics, has the default password SADMIN. The Administrator account belongs to the Administrators group by default and cannot be deleted from it. The person logged on using the Administrator user ID or any member of the Administrators group has permissions to change anything in the repository. Any query issued from the Administrator account has complete access to the data; no restrictions apply to any objects. NOTE: You can set the minimum length for passwords in the NQSConfig.ini file using the MINIMUM_PASSWORD_LENGTH setting. |
