6.5 HP StoreAll OS User Guide

IMPORTANT: Keep in mind the following:
• The Object Store creates a default swift administrator group with a default username and
password of swift whenever an Object Store is created.
NOTE: The swift user and group are created during installation and will be utilized only
for Object Store administrative purposes.
• Users must have administrative privileges to be able to create, delete, and manage containers
on an Object Store.
• The ibrix_objectstoreadmin command can only be used to assign administrator
permissions to AD, LDAP or StoreAll local users. To assign administrative privileges to the
keystone users, you must use the Keystone client or REST API access through cURL.
• While assigning administrative privileges, users must be mapped to their respective
administrator group.
• You can also assign non-administrative users read-write access to a container. See “Assigning
non-administrative privileges with read-write access to a container” (page 144) and “Assigning
non-administrative privileges with read access to a container” (page 145) for more information.
