Creating users in the IBM InfoSphere Information Server Web console

If the IBM® InfoSphere® Information Server internal user registry is used, you can create users as the first level of security. You must create a user for each person that needs to log in to InfoSphere Information Server.

Before you begin

You must have suite administrator authority.

Procedure

  1. In the IBM InfoSphere Information Server Web console, click the Administration tab.
  2. In the Navigation pane, select Users and Groups > Users.
  3. In the Users pane, click New User.
  4. In the Create New User pane, provide information about the user.
  5. In the Roles pane, specify whether the user is an administrator and user of the suite or a user of the suite.
  6. In the Suite Component pane, select whether the user has any suite component roles. To log in to any of the product modules, a user must have the suite user role. Also add at least one suite component role for each suite component that you want the user to access. For example, if you are creating a user that will access IBM InfoSphere Information Analyzer, you must assign the suite user role, and also the Information Analyzer Project Administrator, Data Administrator, or User role.
  7. Click Save and Close to save the user information in the metadata repository.
