4.8.2.1. Create User
Click the create new user link on the top-right corner of the page to add new users to the organization.
When registering a system, a user account can be created and added to the organization, as well. This
should be coordinated by the Organization Administrator. Refer to Section 6.3 Registering a User
Account for instructions.
On the Create User page, complete all required fields, including all login information. Then click
the Create Login button on the bottom right-hand corner of the page. Once the login is created, you
can click on the username in the User List to make system and group assignments. Refer to Section
4.8.2.2 User Details for more information.
Warning
Be careful when creating users, because no interface exists for their deletion. Unless you are an RHN
Satellite Server customer, you must contact rhn-support@redhat.com to have users removed. RHN
Satellite Server customers may use the button on the User Details page.
4.8.2.2. User Details
Clicking on a username displays the User Details page for the individual. This page is divided into
five tabs:
Details — The username, first name, last name, email address, and user roles for the user. All of this
information is modifiable. To do so, make your changes and click the Update button. Remember,
when changing a user's password, you will see only asterisks as you type the password. To assign
a user a new role, select the appropriate checkbox. Organization Administrators are automatically
granted channel administration privileges. When satisfied with the changes, click Update.
System Groups — List of system groups that the user may administer. To add or remove system
groups from a user's administration, select or unselect the appropriate checkboxes and click the
Update Permissions button.
In addition, you may establish default system groups for the user to capture all systems registered
by that user. To do this, select the default group or groups from the dropdown menu at the bottom
of the page. Then click the Update Defaults button. An asterisk appears next to the names of the
defaults in the dropdown menu.
Systems — List of systems that the user can administer. These systems come from the system
groups assigned to the user on the previous tab. To add systems to the System Set Manager, select
them and click the Update button. Clicking the name of a system takes you to its System Details
page. Refer to Section 4.4.2.6 System Details for more information.
Channel Permissions — Subscription and management options set in these subtabs (which corre-
spond with similar tabs on the Channel Details and Managed Channel Details pages):
Subscription — Identifies channels the user may subscribe systems to. To change these, select or
unselect the appropriate checkboxes and click the Update Permissions button. Note that chan-
nels subscribable through the user's admin status or the channel's global setting cannot be altered.
They are identified with a check icon.
Management — Identifies channels the user may manage. To change these, select or unselect the
appropriate checkboxes and click the Update Permissions button. This status does not enable
the user to create new channels. Note that channels automatically manageable through the user's
admin status cannot be altered. They are identified with a check icon.
