You must specify passwords for the default
d2cadmin and
d2cuser accounts during installation of the
Hybrid Data Pipeline server. Best practices recommend that you follow the
Hybrid Data Pipeline default
password policy when specifying these account passwords. When initially
logging in to the Web UI or
using Hybrid Data Pipeline APIs, you must authenticate as one of these users.
The d2cadmin account has the default
System Administrator role. The System Administrator role has all
Hybrid Data Pipeline permissions. The d2cuser account has the default
User role. The User role has a set of permissions associated with standard user tasks. (See
Permissions and default roles for details.) These default roles cannot be deleted. However, the users associated with them can be modified through the Web UI or
Hybrid Data Pipeline APIs.
As a matter of best practices, you should consider removing the default d2cadmin and d2cuser accounts. To remove the default d2cadmin account, you must create at least one other user with the
Administrator permission. When you log in through the new account that has the Administrator permission, you can then remove the default d2cadmin account.
Hybrid Data Pipeline requires that at least one user have the Administrator permission. However, as a matter of best practices, more than one user should have Administrator permission at any time. For more information on provisioning users, see
Tenant architectures and
User provisioning.
