HCL Workload Automation user management

The HCL Workload Automation user management on UNIX and Windows operating systems

About this task

Consider the following constraints and properties for the HCL Workload Automation user:
On Windows operating systems:
The installation process automatically creates the HCL Workload Automation user. If your security policies do not allow user creation during the installation process, create the user and give it the necessary right as described in Windows user domain rights and structure.
On UNIX and Linux operating systems:
Regardless of the method of installation you choose, the HCL Workload Automation user must be created manually before running the installation and must be enabled to login to the machine where the master domain manager is going to be installed. Use the appropriate UNIX and Linux operating system commands to create the user.

You can choose to install with the root user or you can perform a no-root installation, using a user without root privileges. Note that if you perform a no-root installation, only the user who performs the installation can use HCL Workload Automation. When uninstalling, use the same user who performed the installation.

.
Note: Some operating systems require that for users with a password, the password must be changed at the first login. If this is the case, for a successful installation, you will need to log in as the user and change the password for the first time.
