Creating a user account on UNIX

This procedure describes how configure specific parameters for Control-M in a cluster environment.

The account must be clean, that is, there should not be any type of data present in the account.

For a cluster environment, perform the following:

1. Create two user accounts as shown in the following example, one on each node.

   NOTE: /usr/sbin/useradd -u <numeric_user_id> -g <user_group> -d <user_home>
   -s <user_shell> <user_name>

2. Both users must have identical names and identical user IDs (UID).
3. Both users’ home directories should point to the same location on a shared disk.
