Admin Domain and Virtual Fabrics considerations: Administrators can act on other accounts only if
that account has an Admin Domain or Logical Fabric list that is a subset of the administrator.
Displaying account information
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions, or an account
associated with a user-defined role with permissions for the UserManagement class of commands.
2. Enter the appropriate show operands for the account information you want to display:
• userConfig --show -a to show all account information for a switch
• userConfig --show username to show account information for the specified account
• userConfig --showad -a adminDomain_ID to show all accounts permitted to select the
specified adminDomain_ID
• userConfig --showlf -l logicalFabric_ID for each LF in an LF_ID_list, displays a list of users
that include that LF in their LF permissions.
Creating an account
1. Connect to the switch and log in using an account with admin permissions, or an account
associated with a user-defined role with permissions for the UserManagement class of commands.
2. Enter the userConfig --add command.
> userconfig --add metoo -l 1-128 -h 128 -r admin -c admin
This example creates a user account for the user metoo with the following properties:
• Access to Virtual Fabrics 1 through 128
• Default home logical switch to 128
• Admin role permissions
• Admin chassis role permissions
3. In response to the prompt, enter a password for the account.
The password is not displayed when you enter it on the command line.
Deleting an account
This procedure can be performed on local user accounts.
