Custom vlxuser ID for transit users

Normally during installation the vlxtransit users are created with the next available user ID.


To assign other UIDs, the transit users have to be deleted first:

CODE
    /opt/visulox/setup/vlxusers/mgmt.tcl del


Then vlxusers can be recreated with a new start UID. The UIDs are continuous:

CODE
   /opt/visulox/setup/vlxusers/mgmt.tcl add -startuid <number> -# <amount>


Configuration parameters

/opt/visulox/setup/vlxusers/mgmtl.tcl add

ParameterDescription
-startuid <>Start User ID for the vlxusers
-home <>

Base directory of vlxusers. Default value: </opt/visulox/vlxusers>

-shell <>

Shell for the user. Default value: </bin/bash>

-# <>

Amount of vlxusers, which will be generated. Default value: <100>

If the transit users have been customized with /opt/visulox/setup/vlxuser/mgmt.tcl and visulox-transitmapping is installed, then the mapping has to be adjusted too:

  /opt/visulox/setup/vlxusers/mgmt.tcl add -# 10
  /opt/visulox-transit/bin/transitmapping.sh enable
