4 Configuring the MMP
4.1 Creating and managing MMP and Web Admin User Accounts
You should have created a MMP administrator user account called “’admin”; if so, go on to the
next section unless you want to set up additional accounts. If you failed to do this, you will have
to use the emergency admin recovery procedure detailed in the appropriate Installation Guide.
You can create additional user accounts for the MMP that have admin level rights using the
MMP add user command user add <account name> <account type> where the only
currently supported account type is admin.
1. SSH into the MMP.
2. Add an admin level user account, for example:
user add adminuser2 admin
3. Enter the password you want to use for this account twice in order to complete the account
creation.
On login the user will be forced to configure a new password.
Note: For additional user commands, see the Acano solution MMP Command Reference Guide.
4.2 Upgrading Software
The Acano Server will have shipped with the latest release available at the time of shipment but
it may not be up-to-date. Equally, if you downloaded the ovf zip file for the virtualized
deployment some days ago, we advise you to check on the partner section of the Acano website
whether a later version is available, and if so, upgrade before you start testing. The following
instructions apply to both types of deployment:
1. To find out which version the Acano solution is running, SSH into the MMP, log in and type:
version
2. To upgrade, first download the updated .img file from your Acano reseller.
WARNING: You need to make sure you install the correct img file for your type of
deployment; that is either the Acano Server upgrade file or the virtualized server image file.
Each will be clearly labeled. Note that you may need to rename the file to upgrade.img
before going on to step 3.
3. Use a SFTP client to upload a new image to the MMP, for example using a command line
SFTP client:
sftp admin@10.1.x.y
put upgrade.img
For example:
sftp admin@10.1.x.y
put upgrade.img
