4.1 Adding a user account

You can add a user account by selecting User Management in the Settings module, and then Account Management. The functions a user can use vary depending on his or her permissions, so assign adequate permissions to users.

Note that to add user accounts, you must have user account management authority.

Important

The user account that is added by selecting User Management in the Settings module and then Account Management cannot be used as a login account for JP1 authentication. However, such an account can be used to receive notifications of events or digest reports. To add a login account to perform JP1 authentication, add a JP1 user on the JP1/Base authentication server.

To add a user account:

1. Display the Settings module.

2. In the menu area, select User Management, and then Account Management.

3. In the information area, click the Add button.

4. In the Add User Account dialog box that appears, enter the user account information^#, and then click OK.

   For ITDM2 certification:

   The password specified here is the initial password. When user account registration is complete, users will be prompted to change their password when they first log in. Notify users of new accounts that they will need to change their passwords when prompted.

   When using IDaaS linkage:

   Register the user registered with your ID provider as a user who allows ITDM2 operations.

   The ITDM2 user ID and the username registered with the ID provider must be in the same case.

   Only users who are authenticated with an ID provider and registered with ITDM2 can log in to ITDM2.

   The username registered with the ID provider must be up to 64 characters long and contain alphanumeric characters and single-byte symbols.

   The password set on the Add User Account window or Edit User Account window is not used for ITDM2 login authentication.

   The email address registered with the ID provider will not be used by ITDM2. If you want to use the email notification function to the administrator in ITDM2, please set an email address in your ITDM2 user account.

   For details about specifying permissions and task allocation, see 1.3.1 General procedure for determining the settings to be specified for each user account.

The user account is added and listed in User Account List.

Important

Even if an account is not actually added, an event indicating that the account is deleted or added is output. This symptom occurs when all of the following conditions are met:

• The upgraded database is used.

• Security details were obtained before the upgrade.

• Security details are updated for the first time after the upgrade.
