The IBM Jazz™ default ADMIN
user allows you to log in to
a new server, configure the server, and create an initial JazzAdmins
user. For enhanced server security, you can disable the default ADMIN
user. Disabling the default ADMIN user also improves auditability,
because it prevents actions that can only be traced to the default
ADMIN user.
Before you begin
You must be logged
in as a member of the JazzAdmins group.
If you use LDAP, configure the Web server for LDAP, then from your
LDAP, log in as a member of the JazzAdmins group.
