742 Fabric OS commands
Manages user accounts.
Synopsis
userconfig [actions][arguments]
Availability
all users
Description
Use this command to display, add, delete, change, or recover switch accounts. You can create new login
accounts to manage a switch. These accounts take on the permission or role of the default admin or user
account. When the command completes, account name and other attributes are saved persistently. In a
platform supporting multiple domains, the affected accounts apply only to the switch domain that the
command was executed.
In secure mode, the actions associated with this command to add, delete, change or recover accounts
are allowed only on the primary FCS switch. The primary FCS switch distributes the update to the entire
fabric. As a result, all switches supporting customer-defined accounts will have the same account
database. All accounts that not consistent with the primary FCS switch will be deleted and saved in the
backup database. Administrators can use the --recover action to restore the accounts.
