Linux UserAccounts
|
|
==================
|
|
|
|
A brief description of the system accounts available in a |prod| system.
|
|
|
|
|
|
**Sysadmin Local Linux Account**
|
|
This is a local, per-host, sudo-enabled account created automatically when
|
|
a new host is provisioned. It is used by the primary system administrator
|
|
for |prod|, as it has extended privileges.
|
|
|
|
See :ref:`The sysadmin Account <the-sysadmin-account>` for more details.
|
|
|
|
**Local Linux User Accounts**
|
|
Local Linux User Accounts should NOT be created since they are used for
|
|
internal system purposes.
|
|
|
|
**Local LDAP Linux User Accounts**
|
|
These are local LDAP accounts that are centrally managed across all hosts
|
|
in the cluster. These accounts are intended to provide additional admin
|
|
level user accounts \(in addition to sysadmin\) that can SSH to the nodes
|
|
of the |prod|.
|
|
|
|
See :ref:`Local LDAP Linux User Accounts <local-ldap-linux-user-accounts>`
|
|
for more details.
|
|
|
|
.. note::
|
|
For security reasons, it is recommended that ONLY admin level users be
|
|
allowed to |SSH| to the nodes of the |prod|. Non-admin level users should
|
|
strictly use remote |CLIs| or remote web GUIs.
