Dell EMC ObjectScale 1.2.x Administration Guide

Accounts

An ObjectScale Account is a logical construct that corresponds to a customer business unit, tenant, project, and so on, which are relevant to the account admin role and end users that belong to an account. ObjectScale users with the Admin role can create accounts in an ObjectScale instance.

Once created, the Admin must assign the Accounts to object stores for the account to create buckets in the object store. This means that a dedicated object store contains only one tenant account, while a shared object store can have more than one tenant account.

Additionally, an account can be assigned to multiple object stores.

On the Accounts page, a properly credentialed user can see a list of accounts with following details for each account:

• Account ID
• Alias
• Labels
• ObjectScale
• Encryption
• Created On
• Status
• Description
• Account Node ID

Also, the user can perform the following Accounts actions using the ObjectScale Portal user interface:

• Create account.
• Edit existing account.
• Enable account.
• Disable account.

Once the user selects an ObjectScale account from the Accounts page of the ObjectScale Portal user interface, they are able to:

• View a Summary of the account.
• Create and manage account users.
• Create and manage account groups.
• Create and manage account policies.
• Manage account identity providers.
• Create and manage account root access keys.
• Configure notification destinations.
• View account metrics.
