To create the nsp user on a manually installed NSP cluster RHEL OS

Purpose

Perform the procedure to create the Linux nsp user as the owner of files and processes on a station that are otherwise associated by default with user ID 1000.

The procedure applies only to a manually installed RHEL OS on the following:

  • NSP deployer host

  • NSP cluster node

You must perform the procedure on each such NSP station after a manual RHEL OS installation, and before any NSP software is installed on the station.

Note: You do not need to perform the procedure on a RHEL OS deployed using the NSP qcow2 OS image, as the OS image includes the setting.

Steps
 

Log in as the root user on the station that hosts the OS.


Open a console window.


Enter the following:

useradd --shell /sbin/nologin --no-create-home --uid 1000 --user-group nsp ↵

The nsp user account is created in the nsp user group.


Close the console window.
