Adding Users
To add a user on your px4-400d:
1. Click the Users & Groups icon to open the feature page.
2. Click Add a user.
3. Enter the following information:
● Username — enter the username of the user to be created. This is the username for logging
into the px4-400d. There is a maximum of 32 characters, and spaces are not allowed. The
following are not valid usernames: root, daemon, bin, sys, sync, mail, proxy, www-data,
backup, operator, sshd, postfix, nobody, unuser, guest, and rsync.
● Descriptive Name — add a descriptive name to identify the user. For example, if you created
a user with a Username of jsmith, you may want to add the Descriptive Name Joe Smith.
● Password — create a password for the user. The password should be at least 8 to 12
characters, and spaces are not allowed. The maximum password length is 32 characters.
● Confirm Password — confirm the password. If the text in this field does not match the text in
the Password field, an error will be returned.
● Quota Size — set a quota size by entering a value in gigabytes. This limits the amount of
storage space this user can have. To have no quota, leave this field blank. You see this option
only if you have enabled quotas.
● Administrator — check this box to allow this user to manage the px4-400d.
● Add a secured Share for this user — check this box to create a secured Share for this user.
This Share will have the new user's name, and allows access only to that user.
● Send a Personal Cloud invitation — click this link to invite a user to join your Personal Cloud
on the px4-400d. This opens the Send a Personal Cloud Invitation dialog box where you create
an invitation by entering a user's email address along with any additional comments. A user
then receives the invitation, which contains the Personal Cloud name and username and
password. A user enters that information from LenovoEMC Storage Manager. For more
information on this, refer to the online help with LenovoEMC Storage Manager. You see this
option only if a Personal Cloud has been created on the px4-400d.
● Allow this user to add trusted devices to my Personal Cloud — check this box to allow a
user to join a trusted device to a Personal Cloud. A trusted device is a machine, either a
computer or another px4-400d, that belongs to an added user. Only trusted devices that belong
to users that have been added to the px4-400d can join the LenovoEMC Personal Cloud. This
option displays only if a Personal Cloud has been created on the px4-400d.
4. Click Create.
5. Expand Access Permissions for the new user and set the desired access to Shares on the px4-
400d. See Changing Access Permissions for detailed instructions.
