4.1 User Accounts
A user account is required to access an InServ Storage Server. The first user account must be set
up on the node itself. A user class is assigned to each user that wishes to access an InServ
storage system. At the most basic level, a user created on the system and who accesses the
system using the InForm CLI is considered a local user.
Four user classes are provided to allow varying levels of accessibility in the system and are
described in Table 4-1.
Table 4-1. User Classes

Browse Allows read-only accessibility.
Edit Allows access to most commands, such as for
creating and editing virtual volumes.
Super Allows access to all CLI commands.
Service Allows access to limited commands required to
service the storage server; allows limited access to
user information and user group resources.
