About this task

Follow these steps to create a new User Management administrator account and delete the avaya account (avaya is the default User Management administrator account). This procedure applies to the Bundled Server, the Software-Only offer with the Avaya with services package (cs-service), and the Software-Only offer without the Avaya services package (cs-service).

Procedure

  1. From your browser, log in to the AE Services Management Console as avaya with the default password (avayapassword).
  2. From the main menu, select User Management > Add User.
  3. Complete the Add User page as follows:
    1. In the User Id field, enter a user ID, for example aesuseradmin.
    2. In the Common Name field, enter the name the user prefers to use, for example Pat Adams.
    3. In the Surname field, enter the users last name, for example Adams.
    4. In the User Password field, enter a password.

      The default User Management password policy, which is based on a US standard keyboard, calls for a minimum of 8 characters, including a minimum of 1 upper case, 1 lower case, 1 alphanumeric, and 1 special character. The following characters are not permitted: $ (dollar sign), ’ (apostrophe), " (quotation mark), \ (backslash), the space character, and any ASCII control-character.

    5. In the Avaya Role field, select userservice.useradmin.
    6. Click Apply.
  4. Log out of the AE Services Management Console (you are logging out as avaya).
  5. Log in to the AE Services Management Console again with the user identifier and password you created in Step 3 (aesuseradmin, based on this example).
  6. From the main menu, select User Management > List All Users.
  7. From the List All Users page, select the option button next to avaya, and click Delete.
  8. From the Delete User page, click Delete.
