Create the Default Admin User

When you connect to the Sheriff CSM web UI for the first time after installation and setup, Sheriff CSM prompts you to create the default admin user.

After you create the default admin, you can log in and use Sheriff CSM.

To create the default admin
  1. Access the Sheriff CSM web UI.

    The Welcome screen appears when you access the web UI for the first time.

    Administer Account Creation

  2. Fill out the form.

    Note: The option Share anonymous usage statistics and system information to help us make Sheriff CSM better enables telemetry. For information about this, see What Is Telemetry Collection and How Does It Work.

  3. When you finish filling out the form, click Start Using Sheriff.

  4. Type the admin username and password you created in the form, then click Login.
If you plan to have multiple administrators to help administer Sheriff CSM, you should create one or more admin users.

For instructions to create additional administrators locally on Sheriff CSM, see Create New Accounts for Local Users or to create additional administrators using LDAP, see Create New Accounts for LDAP Users.
