Users
When you define a Content Manager OnDemand user, you create a userid with which a person in your organization logs on to the Content Manager OnDemand library server. You can optionally add the userid to folders and application groups, which is one way to let the user open folders and access data.
Each person in your organization logs on to the library server using a Content Manager OnDemand userid. Content Manager OnDemand authenticates the userid and determines the usage and administrative authority available to that person, based on the userid.
Content Manager OnDemand can store a
maximum of 1,080,000 separate user IDs.
A Content Manager OnDemand userid does not necessarily have to identify an
individual by name. However, for accounting purposes, most customers assign a Content Manager OnDemand userid to each person that will use the system. When you initialize
the system, Content Manager OnDemand automatically creates the ADMIN userid. The
ADMIN userid has system administrator authority. A system administrator can do the basic user
functions, such as logging on the system and opening folders. A system administrator
can also do administrative functions, such as maintaining users and groups and creating, updating,
and deleting application groups, applications, folders, storage sets, printers, holds, and
cabinets.
Note: The
ADMIN userid does not have an initial password assigned. Because the ADMIN userid has system
authority, IBM® recommends that you assign a password to the
ADMIN userid immediately after installation.
When naming Content Manager OnDemand users, the name that you
specify:
- Can contain one to 128 characters (bytes)
- Cannot include the ' (apostrophe), *, %, +, [ (left bracket), ] (right bracket), " (double quotation mark), or blank character
- Must be unique to the library server
LaGuarde is the same as
laguarde). Content Manager OnDemand converts lowercase letters
in a user name to uppercase (LaGuarde is stored as LAGUARDE).
However, depending on how you configure the Login Processing system parameters, userid processing
on your system might be different; the case might be significant. See System parameters for more information.
