HPE 3PAR StoreServ

• 3parcust is the default customer account. This account is not used by Hewlett Packard Enterprise
personnel and can be modified by the user. This account can be used to create new local SP users
and to access SPOCC. The 3parcust password should be changed by the customer.
• setupusr is used only for the initial system setup process to access the SP from the setup wizards.
After installation, the setupusr account password should be changed.
• spvar is used only by Hewlett Packard Enterprise personnel and authorized service providers to
perform service and diagnostic functions on the system. This account can be used to access SPOCC
and the SPMAINT utility (via SSH). The spvar password should be changed by the customer and
stored so that it can be shared with on-site Hewlett Packard Enterprise or authorized service
personnel during maintenance activities (and changed again afterwards).
Default CLI User Accounts
During the 3PAR storage system’s Out of the Box (OOTB) operation, the following HPE 3PAR CLI user
accounts are created:
• 3paradm is a user account with Super rights. This user account is not used by Hewlett Packard
Enterprise personnel and you can modify or delete this user account. Use the 3paradm user account
to create new CLI users. You should change the password of this user.
• 3parcim is a user account with Browse rights. This user account is reserved for use by the 3PAR
administration tools. The 3parcim user account and password must not be modified or deleted if you
intend to use CIM. If CIM will never be used, then the account may be modified or deleted.
• 3parbrowse is a user account with Browse rights. No Hewlett Packard Enterprise personnel or service
providers have access to this user account. The password is randomly created and is unknown to
anyone. This user account is not used by Hewlett Packard Enterprise personnel and you can modify or
delete this user account.
• 3paredit is a user account with Edit rights. No Hewlett Packard Enterprise personnel or service
providers have access to this user account. The password is randomly created and is unknown to
anyone. This user account is not used by Hewlett Packard Enterprise personnel and you can modify or
delete this user account.
• 3parsvc is a user account with Super rights. This Super user account is used by the SP to monitor the
3PAR storage system. The 3parsvc user account should not be removed. If the SP is being used to
monitor the storage server, the SP resets the default password to a randomized value. Changing the
password prevents the SP from performing monitoring operations. If the SP is not being used for
monitoring and is only used for maintenance activities, the password can be changed. When a
maintenance activity takes place, the password for 3parsvc should be set to a defined value; after the
maintenance, the SP changes the password to a randomized value again. Once the maintenance is
complete, the password can again be changed.
• 3parservice is a user account with Super rights. This Super user account is used by Hewlett Packard
Enterprise personnel and authorized service providers to perform service and diagnostic functions on
the system through the interactive CLI. The 3parservice user account should not be removed. The
password can be modified by the system administrator. During SP maintenance activities, the
password may be reset by the system to allow service to proceed. Once the maintenance is complete,
the password can again be changed.
