Function What it does Command Target (see paths in Command targets)
Disable centralized user account management Disables centralized account management, allowing use of local CMM user accounts.
Note:
  • Centralized user account management is enabled by the optional management device software.
  • When centralized user account management is enabled by the optional management device software:
    • All CMM user accounts are disabled, except for the RECOVERY_ID account that unlocks the CMM and issues commands to configure the CMM LDAP client.
    • Users logged in to the CMM web interface and CLI are logged out when their user accounts are disabled.
  • When running the fsmcm -off command using the management device software created recovery account (RECOVERY_ID):
    • The CMM CLI session for the RECOVERY_ID user account terminates. You will need to use an existing CMM user account to access the CMM web interface or CLI, until centralized user management is restored.
    • The RECOVERY_ID user account is deleted.
    • Management of compute node IPMI and SNMPv3 user accounts by the CMM is disabled. This function can be enabled using the users -am enabled command (see users command).
  • See the Lenovo XClarity Administrator or Flex System Manager documentation for information about accessing the CMM after centralized user account management is enabled.
