An installer can create a profile and assign ownership of the profile directory to a non-root user so that the non-root user can start the product for a specific profile. Use this example to accomplish the tasks through commands.
This task assumes a basic familiarity with the manageprofiles command and system commands.
Before you can create a profile, you must install the product.
Have the installer perform the following steps to create a profile and assign ownership for the profile directory and the logs directory. The ownership is assigned to a non-root user ID that is different from the installer ID. The non-root user needs access to these directories to start the product.
The commands are split on multiple lines for printing purposes.
The installer has created a profile and changed ownership of the profile directory and log directory to a non-root user.
As the installer, you can continue to create profiles and assign ownership to non-root users as needed.
A non-root user ID can manage multiple profiles. For a given profile, have the same non-root user ID manage the entire profile.
The non-root user can use the same tasks to manage a profile that the root user uses.
