3.5.4 Creating Users

Use the CREATE USER command to create Oracle Exadata System Software users.

A newly created user does not have any privileges. The Oracle Exadata System Software user is granted privileges through roles granted to the user.

1. Use the CREATE USER command to create a user and assign an initial password.

   The following command creates a user called fred with password uq==A*2D$_18.

   CellCLI> CREATE USER fred PASSWORD = "uq==A*2D$_18"

2. To grant privileges to the new user fred, use the GRANT ROLE command for a role that has already been configured.
