Disabling or reactivating the default admin user

One use case for disabling the default admin user is to ensure that only single sign-on is used to log into Striim (see Managing users using single sign-on (SSO)).

Disable the admin user

  1. Log in as a user with the Global.admin role.

  2. In the console, enter the following:

    ALTER USER admin SET (ACTIVE:false);

  3. Verify that the admin user has been disabled:

    DESCRIBE USER admin;

    The output should contain:

    User is Inactive.
Reactivating the admin user

  1. Log in as a user with the Global.admin role.

  2. In the console, enter the following:

    ALTER USER admin SET (ACTIVE:true);

    Known issue DEV-56319: this command may result in an "Error while initializing EntityManager" even though it completes successfully.

  3. Verify that the admin user has been reactivated:

    DESCRIBE USER admin;

    The output should contain:

    User is Active.
