Managing User Accounts
The xStack Storage Array comes with a single user account called admin. A user account must be
set up for each additional user who will be authorized to access the management console. The
user account consists of a unique username and password, and permissions for managing storage
and/or adding or editing user accounts.
By default, the admin user can manage storage and add and edit user accounts. When the admin
user sets up a user account, he specifies storage and user account permissions for each user. The
permissions work independently, so the admin could:
Let a user manage storage, without being able to add or edit user accounts.
Let a user add or edit other user accounts, without being able to manage storage.
Limit a user to read-only permissions that let the user view management console screens,
without being able to manage storage or add/edit user accounts.
The admin account cannot be deleted in firmware version 1.4.0.27 and
above. For security, please be sure to change the password for this account.
However, if you lose the password for the admin account, you may use the
diagnostic port to reset the password (see Appendix E).
