Setup Procedure
Setting up PAP Unit Users
The Customer Administrator should now set up at least one Customer Administrator and one
Customer Operator user account to ensure controlled access to the PAP unit.
The Microsoft Windows operating system pre-installed on the PAP unit provides standard
security features for controlling access to applications and resources. PAM software security
is based on Windows

user management and you are advised to give Windows

administrator rights to at least one member of the PAP Customer Administrator user group.
For further details about user management, refer to the Microsoft Windows documentation on
the Bull NovaScale Server System Resource CD.
Note:
You are advised to change the temporary Administrator password ( administrator ) used for
setup purposes and to maintain a detailed record of authorized users.
Predefined PAP User Groups
For optimum security and flexibility, the Microsoft Windows software environment is delivered
with two predefined Customer user groups:

This group is designed for customer representatives responsible for the overall management,
configuration, and operation of the system. Members of the Customer Administrator group
are allowed to configure and administrate the server and have full access to the PAM
Domain Manager , Hardware Monitor , History Manager and Configuration Tasks menus, as
shown in Table 4.

system. Members of the Customer Operator group are allowed to operate the server and

Group membership also conditions which Event Messages a user will receive via the PAM
Web interface. See
