Hello everyone, I am new to ovirt and would like to apologise if this has been asked
before.
When I created a cluster of ovirt 4.3, I was presented with the option of creating an
admin user.
However, we would like to assign different login credentials for our employees with
different set of rules.
I was able to view the users menu under the Administration > Users.
Currently we only have an admin user with internal-authz. When clicking on the add button,
I only see "internal-authz" and "*" under namespace.
Clicking on Go button simply shows admin user again.
I created a new role under the Administration > Configure > Roles, however, there is
no option to add new user anywhere.
Can you please point me to the right steps for adding new users?
Thanks

Hello,
engine itself doesn't manage users directly, it just connects to
different user directories. Admin is created in internal profile, that
is specifically created for engine.
You can manage internal users with AAA JDBC tool.
See

Thank you Lucie,
So if I understand correctly, we need to install the AAA JDBC tool as an additional
package on the server running the hosted engine?
The link you sent me suggests that we have to run engine-setup? What exactly does this
mean and seems rather complicated for adding a new user.
Anyways, I ran the command "ovirt-hosted-engine-setup" after googling a bit and
it prompted me to create a new VM with hosted engine. I followed through by providing a
FQDN from our DNS server. However, this procedure failed to create the VM.
Am I doing something wrong? Could you please elaborate what would be the right steps
here?
Thank you

Hi,
ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-jdbc package is installed automatically as a
part of oVirt Engine, so in order to use it, you need to SSH to oVirt
Engine host/VM and execute ovirt-aaa-jdbc-tool locally:
https://www.ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/index.html#sect-...
Anyway aaa-jdbc extension is useful mostl for small installations within
organizations which don't have their users/groups provided on LDAP server.
If your organization has LDAP server, then I suggest to use aaa-ldap
extension:

Hi,
I would recommend to use ansible, that way you can have your

Thank you Martin, I tried as you suggested and ran the "ovirt-aaa-jdbc-tool user
add" command on the hosted engine server, but got the following error:
/usr/bin/ovirt-aaa-jdbc-tool: line 3:
/usr/share/ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-jdbc/bin/../../ovirt-engine/bin/engine-prolog.sh: No
such file or directory
At first I thought the package doesn't exist, and so I installed it using - yum
install ovirt-engine-extension-aaa-jdbc
https://ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/index.html#sect-Conf...
But I continue to receive this same error.

You should do this on the engine machine (VM), not on a host.
You should not need to install this tool on a host, and on the engine
you should already have it.

Thank you so much..I was a bit confused about this but now I have successfully added the
users.
However, I am still having trouble assigning login permit for these users. I get the
error- The user @internal is not authorized to perform login.
I can only bypass this by assigning some kind of admin roles which we do not wish to have
in our setup.
Is there a specific user permission that must be added to permit login? I have already
tried creating a custom role with Login permission but that doesn't work.

Any user can login to the VM portal.
Only users that have at least one admin role can login to the admin portal.
You can create a custom admin role and not give it any other
permissions (other than login), then give it to the user you created -
I think this should be enough.

For specific users local to the ovirt engine
https://ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/index.html#sect-Admi...
OK for an emergency admin user or perhaps external system user, but this
doesn't scale very well.
But generally you might want to setup LDAP logins with
https://ovirt.org/documentation/administration_guide/index.html#sect-Conf...
and manage users externally across multiple machines.
