Create a New User in the Embedded WebLogic LDAP Server

You typically create a separate user for each business user in your Oracle Analytics Server environment.

For example, you might plan to deploy 30 report consumers, 3 report authors, and 1 administrator. In this case, you would use Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console to create 34 users, which you would then assign to appropriate groups.

All users who are able to log in are given a basic level of operational permissions conferred by the built-in Authenticated User application role. The author of the application that is imported into your instance might have designed the security policy so that all authenticated users are members of an application role that grants privileges in the application.

DefaultAuthenticator is the name for the default authentication provider.

1. Log in to the Oracle WebLogic Server Administration Console.

4. In Create a New User, in Name, type the name of the user.
