Creating Portal Super Users
A super user (
admin@yourdomain.com) was automatically created during your initial installation. To learn about the privileges of a super user, see
About User Privileges.
For security purposes, you cannot add additional super users through the Portal. To add a new super user requires that you log on to the Oracle database server.
To create a super user account:
1. Create a new user, or identify an existing user that requires super user privileges and record the user ID. To create a new user, see
Creating Portal User Accounts.
2. On the Oracle database server (typically, the Portal server), log on as user aptare.
3. Start sqlplus, then log on to the database using the following command:
# sqlplus portal/portalPassword
UPDATE ptl_user
SET user_type=3
WHERE email_address=’emailaddress@companyname.com’;
4. Save your changes.
