Create an Oracle MaxRep User Account

You can create new administrator or monitor user accounts for the Oracle MaxRep for SAN system.

Use the Add User Account page to create either an administrator user account or a monitor user account.
Note: For security reasons, Oracle recommends that you create a separate account for each administrator of the Oracle MaxRep system. Then you can grant the appropriate administrator access rights to each user. Oracle does not recommend the practice of sharing login credentials, nor does Oracle recommend that all administrators log in to the default admin user account.
The user roles have the following restrictions:
  • Administrator role can edit any user account.

  • Monitor role can modify only a few account settings such as their passwords.

  1. Navigate to Settings > User Management > Manage Users.
    Result:
    The Manage Users table appears with a list of current users.
  2. Click Add User Account.
  3. Enter the Full Name of the new user.
    A UID (unique ID) is automatically generated for the user account.
  4. Enter a User Name for the new user. The user name is used to log into the Oracle MaxRep system.
  5. (Optional) To allow this user administrator privileges, select Admin Access.
    Note: The Administrator role provides the user full access to all Oracle MaxRep functions. Users with the Monitor roles have limited access.
  6. To authenticate the user, select Local database.
    Note: The Microsoft AD (Active Directory) authentication service is disabled in Oracle MaxRep, so Local database is the only available option.
  7. Enter (and re-enter) a Password for the user.
  8. Enter an E-mail Address for the user.
    This is the email address that the Replication Engine uses to deliver email alerts to this user.
  9. Click Save.
