Use the following procedure to create a user with or without the administrator roles. For a description of user types, see Understanding Users and Roles.
hostname:> configuration users
directory- for a Directory user (NIS, LDAP).
local- for a Local user.
data- for a Data-only user.
nologin- for a no-login user.
hostname:configuration users john (uncommitted)> get logname = john uid = (unset) fullname = (unset) initial_password = (unset) require_annotation = false
hostname:configuration users john (uncommitted)> set initial_password=password initial_password = ******** (uncommitted) hostname:configuration users john (uncommitted)> commit
At this point you have a created user, but haven't customized all their properties yet.
You can now add roles and authorization exceptions for the user.
