User Accounts
MiniCluster includes the user accounts listed in this table.
|
|
|
|
|
mcinstall
|
The password is configured during the installation. It can be
reset and changed through MCMU.
|
root
|
The installation process requires you to create
mcinstall as the MCMU primary administrator
and create a password. This account is intended to be the primary
administrator for the MCMU.
This user account is used for these activities:
-
Performing the system initialization at installation time
by running installmc.
-
Administering the system, including VMs using the MCMU BUI
and mcmu CLI.
-
To assume the root role
(su to root) on application VMs and
in the global zone and kernel zones for superuser
privileges.
|
|
MCMU Supervisor – Account name
determined at installation time
|
The password is configured during the installation.
|
root
|
In the MiniCluster software, the supervisor user is only intended
to approve or deny MCMU users as they are created and
deleted.
This user receives email every time a new MCMU user is created.
The new user must be approved by the supervisor and the primary
admin (such as mcinstall) for the user account to be enabled.
|
|
(Optional) Tenant Admin – Account name
determined at user registration time
|
Determined upon initial log in.
|
tadmin
|
This user can perform all post-installation activities (including
using OTP to authenticate a user
for a single login or session) only on VMs.
This user cannot access the global zone, and cannot run the MCMU
BUI or CLI.
Note -
If the user is created with the MCMU CLI, the role is
identified as tenant_admin.
|
|
(Optional) Secondary Admin – Account
name determined at user registration time
|
Determined upon initial log in.
|
mcadmin
|
When an MCMU user is created and assigned as a secondary admin,
and has read-only access to non-global zones.
|
|
oracle
|
Set during the DB VM group profile configuration.
|
root
|
This user account is used for these activities:
-
Used as the initial login account to database VMs, from
which you can configure the database VMs with a database,
data, and other accounts, as needed.
-
To assume the root role (su to root) on
database VMs for superuser privileges.
|
|
When MiniCluster is accessed for the first time, you are prompted to create a new password that adheres to the password policies. See User Authentication and Password Policies.
All actions performed by all MCMU users are logged based on the user's identifier. For
information about audit reports, see Auditing and Compliance Reporting.
Note -
MCMU user accounts are not used for the routine use of the system, such as using
the applications and databases. Those user accounts are managed through Oracle
Solaris, the application, the database on the VMs, and through your site's name
services.
