Deleting a Login
The Administrative Interface prevents you from deleting the login that you are currently using. For example, you
cannot log in as
touch and delete the touch login; to do this, you must log in using a different user name that has the
add/del permission on users. This also prevents you from deleting all logins via the interface. However, it is
possible that all user logins could be deleted by manually editing the configuration file, or in the unlikely event the
configuration file becomes corrupted. If this occurs, the
eqadmin utility can be used to create a new Administrators
Read-Only login; see
1. Log in to Equalizer using a login other than the one you want to delete; the login you use must have the add/del
permission on users (see “Logging In” on page 52).
2. Select
Equalizer > Permissions > Users
.
3. Select the delete icon on the same row as the name of the user login you want to delete.
4. A confirmation box appears. Select
Commit
to delete the login.
Entering Names for Equalizer Objects
Equalizer identifies administrative objects, such as clusters and servers, by name. For example, object names and
icons are displayed in a hierarchy in the Administrative Interface’s left frame as described earlier in this chapter.
Keep in mind the following guidelines when typing in a name for an Equalizer object:
• The characters used in names are limited to standard ASCII letters (‘A’ through ‘Z’ and ‘a’ through ‘z’),
numbers (0 through 9), and the characters '
.
' (period), '
-
' (dash) and '
_
' (underscore).
• The first character in a name must be a letter.
• Names can be at most 63 characters long.
• The readability of lists presented in the interface is increased by using short names that use as many unique
characters at the beginning of the name as possible.
