Manage Public Cloud Users
This guide explains how to manage users for your project Public Cloud.
Preamble
- To access the resources of a project, it is necessary to create OpenStack users (read below).
- These OpenStack users have no connection with Infomaniak Manager users.
- The user's name (username) is generated automatically and is communicated after it is created.
- These OpenStack users are linked to a project, so they cannot access more than one project.
- All operations on users (add, edit, delete, etc.) are asynchronous and can sometimes take several minutes to complete.
Create a user for your Public Cloud
To create an OpenStack user once your Public Cloud has been ordered:
- Click here in order to access the management of your product on the Manager Infomaniak (Need help?).
- Click directly on the nameallocated to the product concerned.
- Create a new Project.
- The user defined at the creation of your project will be in the form PCU-XXXX and you can assign it a description for your ease of use.
User password management
OpenStack user password can be either set immediately to the creation be generated thereafter via a link that is sent by e-mail to the address of your choice.
To amend it subsequently:
- Click here in order to access the management of your product on the Manager Infomaniak (Need help?).
- Click directly on the nameallocated to the product concerned.
- Click on Manage in the column Users of the project concerned.
