E.1 Operating JP1/AJS3 by using an AJS administrator account

An AJS administrator can manage and operate a JP1/AJS3 system except for some operations that require superuser privileges. When you set an AJS administrator account, the AJS administrator and a user with superuser privileges (system administrator) can divide the workload of managing and operating a JP1/AJS3 system.

For example, the AJS administrator could specify the environment settings of JP1/AJS3 and perform daily operations while the system administrator performed only the operations, such as installations, that require superuser privileges.

The following figure shows an example in which the AJS administrator and the system administrator divide the workload of creating and operating a JP1/AJS3 system.

Figure E‒1: Example of dividing the workload of creating and operating a JP1/AJS3 system

[Figure]

In this example, the AJS administrator and the system administrator divide the workload as follows.

Creating the system

The AJS administrator asks the system administrator to install programs such as JP1/AJS3 and JP1/Base and to allocate OS resources. The system administrator installs the programs and allocates OS resources as requested. When the system administrator's work is finished, the AJS administrator sets up JP1/AJS3. For a cluster system, the AJS administrator asks a user who has the operation privilege for cluster software such as the system administrator to operate the cluster software.

Operating the system

The AJS administrator performs daily operations. When necessary, the AJS administrator starts and stops JP1/AJS3, backs up definitions, and maintains the database. If the AJS administrator does not have the operation privilege for cluster software, the AJS administrator asks the system administrator or any other user with the operation privilege to operate the cluster system.

If a problem occurs, the system administrator collects the data necessary for determining the cause of the problem.
