Adding and removing local users from the deduplication shell
Use the following procedures to add or remove local users from the deduplication shell.
To add a local user
- Open an SSH session to the server as the msdpadm user.
- (Optional) If you want to use a random password for the new user, generate one with the following command:
setting user random-password
- Run the following command:
setting user add-user username=<username> password=<password>
Where <username> is the username of the user that you want to add, and <password> is a password for that user.
The password must have between 15 and 32 characters and must include at least one uppercase letter, one lowercase letter, one number, and one special character (_./@*!%#).
- Run the following commands to view the new user:
setting user show-user username=<username>
This command shows the information about the new user.
setting user list-users
This command shows a list of all local users.
To remove a local user
- Open an SSH session to the server as the msdpadm user.
- Run the following command:
setting user delete-user username=<username>
Where <username> is the username of the user that you want to remove.
Note:
The msdpadm user cannot be removed.
