2.5.2 Setting up the prerequisite product (for Linux)
The following describes how to set up an authentication server when JP1/Base has been installed in Linux.
- Organization of this subsection
(1) Setting up an authentication server (for Linux)
To log in to JP1/IM - Manager, you need to set up user authentication on the manager. You can set a maximum of two authentication servers (primary and secondary).
The local host is set as an authentication server during installation of JP1/Base. To set a different host as an authentication server, perform the procedure below.
Prerequisites
The following conditions must be satisfied:
-
The host name of the host to be set up as an authentication server can be resolved by using the hosts file or DNS server.
-
The OS user who will execute the jbssetusrsrv command has root permissions.
Procedure
-
Specify the following jbssetusrsrv command on the host you want to specify as the authentication server:
/opt/jp1base/bin/jbssetusrsrv primary-authentication-server [secondary-authentication-server]

(2) Registering JP1 users in an authentication server (for Linux)
Register JP1 users in the primary authentication server.
A JP1 user whose user name and password are jp1admin is automatically set during installation of JP1/Base. To add JP1 users, perform the procedure below.
Prerequisites
The following conditions must be satisfied:
-
The primary authentication server is specified.
-
The OS user who will execute the jbsadduser command has root permissions.
Procedure
-
On the host specified as the primary authentication server, execute the following jbsadduser command to register a JP1 user to the authentication server:
/opt/jp1base/bin/jbsadduser JP1-user-name
Specify the JP1 user name according to the following rules:
Item
Number of bytes
Case-sensitive?
Permitted character string
JP1 user name
1 to 31 bytes
No
Alphanumeric characters and symbols (excluding * / \ " ' ^ [ ] { } ( ) : ; | = , + ? < > and spaces and tabs)
-
After executing the jbsadduser command, follow the instructions to enter the password.
Specify the password according to the following rules:
Item
Number of bytes
Case-sensitive?
Permitted character string
Password
6 to 32 bytes
Yes
Alphanumeric characters and symbols (excluding \ " : and spaces and tabs)
Note that jp1admin is automatically set for both the JP1 user name and password during installation of JP1/Base.

(3) Operation permissions for JP1 users (for Linux)
Each JP1 user is assigned an operating permission called a JP1 permission level.
This manual assumes that the JP1 permission level for the system administrator (jp1admin) is JP1_Console_Admin and JP1_CF_Admin.
JP1_Console_Admin permission is needed to operate a central console and central scope.
JP1_CF_Admin permission is needed to operate IM Configuration Management.
The JP1 permission level required for the system administrator is automatically set during installation of JP1/Base. To register a JP1 user other than the system administrator, see the description of the operation permissions for JP1 users in the JP1/Base User's Guide.
