Prolog information
Do the following by using the Application Enablement Services – Management Console:
  • Create a new user account in the susers Linux group.
    When creating a new user account, ensure the following:
    • In the Default Login Group field, type susers.
    • Select the Allow Linux Shell Access check box.
    • In the Maximum number of days a password may be used (PASS_MAX_DAYS) field, type the number of days after which the password for this user account must expire.
      Avaya recommends you to set this value to the maximum number of days, which is 99999 days.
      If you set this value to fewer number of days and if you do not change the password on time and the password expires, Usage Metering cannot connect to Application Enablement Services.
    For more information, see Adding a local Linux account for an administrator in the Administering Avaya Aura® Application Enablement Services guide.
Note:
You must use the access credentials of this user when adding Application Enablement Services to your Avaya OneCloud™ Subscription system in the Usage Metering Collector. Usage Metering Collector uses these access credentials to connect to Application Enablement Services.
Do not use these access credentials to perform any other operations in Application Enablement Services.
