Migrating NMC users to the authentication service database

If you did not migrate the NMC users to the authentication service database when the login process prompted you to during the login process after the NMC server after an update, you can perform the migration later.

1. Click Setup.
2. From the Setup menu, select Migrate Users.
3. On the Migrate Users page, select the users that you want to migrate.
   NOTE:By default all users are selected for migration. The migration deletes unselected user accounts.
4. For each user, perform the following steps:
   1. In the Password field, specify an initial password.

      Ensure the password complies with the following minimum requirements:

      • Nine characters long
      • One uppercase letter
      • One lowercase letter
      • One special character
      • One numeric character
   2. Leave the default selection for Password Change Required, which ensures that when the user connects to the NMC Server for the first time, that the log in process prompts the user to change their password.
   3. In the Groups field, if the user will manage user accounts, select the Administrators group.
