Chapter 4: Configuring the Library
Working With Local User Accounts and Passwords
Quantum Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 User’s Guide 81
The first time you access the library via the Web client, when you see the
Login screen, type admin in the User name text box and type password in
the
Password text box. As soon as you complete the initial library setup,
you should change the password on the default administrator account.
For information on changing passwords, see
Modifying Local User
Accounts on the Web Client on page 83.
Note: You cannot delete the default administrator account or modify
the user name. You can, however, change the password.
Note: If you misplace the password for the default administrator
account, contact Quantum Support (see
Getting More
Information or Help on page xxvii).
Privilege Levels Privilege levels are manually assigned to user accounts created within
the library. Controlling access to screens and operations within the
library preserves the integrity of the library and the data that is stored in
it.
Note: If passwords are not enabled on the operator panel, all users
have access to all privileges. See
Enabling and Creating
Passwords on the Operator Panel on page 84.
Three types of users are defined in Scalar i40 and Scalar i80 libraries:
• Administrators have access to the entire physical library and all of
its partitions. The library ships with a default administrator account.
The user name for the default administrator account is admin and
the password is password. You cannot modify or delete the user
name for the default administrator account, but you can modify the
password. If you misplace the password for the default
administrator account, contact Quantum Support.
For security purposes, an administrator can prevent a service user
from logging on to the library remotely, from either the Web client
or over the Ethernet service port. The service user will still be able to
log in to the library from the operator panel interface. For more
information, see
Remote Service Login on page 105.
