Creating a user with no administrative capabilities

In a CIFS environment, you can create users on the storage system that are in local groups but do not have console access or any administrative capabilities on the storage system. These users still have the file access permissions granted by the local groups.

Steps

  1. Enter the following command: useradmin user add user_name -g "Guests"
    user_name is the user name for the new user.
  2. Enter the user’s password when prompted.
  3. To verify that you have created the user with no capabilities, enter the following command: useradmin user list user_name
    The Allowed Capabilities field should be blank.
