More than one administrator session can be running at the same time. These sessions could be using the

FindMe accounts
FindMe accounts are used by individuals in an enterprise to configure the devices and locations on which
they can be contacted through their FindMe ID.
Each FindMe account is accessed using a username and password.
If local FindMe account authentication is selected, each FindMe account must be created locally by the
n
VCS administrator.
If remote FindMe account authentication is selected, the VCS administrator must set up FindMe groups to
n
match the corresponding group names in the remote directory service. Note that only the username and
password details are managed remotely. All other properties of the FindMe account, such as the FindMe
ID, devices and locations are stored in the local VCS database.

We recommend that you use Cisco TMS if you need to provision a large number of FindMe accounts. See

Root account
The VCS provides a root account which can be used to log in to the VCS operating system. The root account
should not be used in normal operation, and in particular system configuration should not be conducted using
this account. Use the admin account instead.
See the
Using the root account [p.275]
Note: remember to change the passwords for the admin and root accounts from their default values.
