The account you use to create and configure the shared root
directory of a file storage area or content cache area.
Procedure
- Create the following operating system account:
- Content Platform Engine operating system user
- Unique identifier
- cpe_os_user
- Description
- An operating system account you must log on as to create and configure the shared root directory
of a file storage area or content cache area.
The operating system user who logs on to the
Content Platform Engine server and starts the local application server
process is the account that must be used to secure the folders and files in a file storage area.
From a practical standpoint, the account that is used to install the application server should be
the same account that is used to start the application server process. As an administrator, you will
always log in using the same cpe_os_user account to secure the folders and files
in the file system that Content Platform Engine will use for a file storage
area.
- Minimum required permissions
- Windows
- For Windows-based Content Platform Engine and file storage areas,
cpe_os_user must reside in the same Windows domain or in trusted Windows domains as the
servers that host Content Platform Engine and the file storage area.
- For
Windows-based file storage areas and using WebSphere®:
you must set the WebSphere service to logon as the
cpe_os_user.
- AIX®, HPUX, HPUXi, Linux, Linux for System z, Solaris
- For AIX, HPUX, HPUXi,Linux, Linux for System z, or
Solaris-based Content Platform Engine and file storage areas, configuring
security requires the use of NFS.
