Creating the ECS Administrative User Account

At least one administrative user account with ECS privileges must be configured on the system. This is the account that
is used to log on and execute ECS-related commands. For security purposes, it is recommended that these user accounts
be created along with general system functionality administration.
To create the ECS administrative user account, use the following configuration:
configure
context local
administrator <user_name> password <password> ecs
end
Notes:
 Aside from having ECS capabilities, an ECS Administrator account also has the same capabilities and privileges
as any other system-level administrator account.
 You can also create system ECS user account for a config-administrator, operator, or inspector. ECS accounts
have the same system-level privileges of normal system accounts except that they have full ECS command
execution capability. For example, an ECS account has rights to execute every command that a regular
administrator can in addition to all of the ECS commands.
 Note that only Administrator and Config-administrator level users can provision ECS functionality. Refer to the
Configuring System Settings chapter of the System Administration and Configuration Guide for additional
information on administrative user privileges.
