Tideway best practice is to use the system user only for configuration tasks which require system privileges. For normal operations you should log in as a user with more appropriate privileges. By default, in addition to the system user, the following additional users are configured in BMC Atrium Discovery:
 | Default passwords
Each user has an initial password in BMC Atrium Discovery; these are the same as the user name. BMC recommend that you change these passwords when you first log on as the system user. Not doing so will make it easier for someone to gain access to the BMC Atrium Discovery UI. |
To enable other users:
- Click the Administration tab.
The Administration page is displayed.
- Click the Users icon in the security section.
The Users page is displayed.
- For each of the admin, appmodel, and discovery users, click the Set Password link.
The Set Password page is displayed.
- Enter the new password in each text entry field and click the Apply button.
- When you have changed the passwords for each user, you should logout from the system user account.
To do this, click the logout icon at the top right of the page. When you have logged out, the login page is displayed.
