Objective

Requirements

A Cloud Disk Array solution

OVHcloud Console Access

Direct link:
Navigation path: Bare Metal Cloud > Storage > Cloud Disk Array > Select your service

Instructions

Using the OVHcloud Console

Info

Using the OVHcloud Console is the easiest way to create a user.

On your Cloud Disk Array service page, open the Users tab and click Add a user.

In the Add a user panel, enter a User name (letters, digits and underscore only).

Warning

Your username needs to contain at least three characters.

Click Add a user. An access key is generated automatically. You can configure the user's permissions once the user is created: see the Change user rights guide.

Using the API

Tip

If you are not familiar with the OVHcloud API, read our First Steps with the OVHcloud API guide.

You can create a user using this API route:

POST/dedicated/ceph/{serviceName}/user

serviceName is the fsid of your cluster.

You can also check the user creation by creating a list of users:

GET/dedicated/ceph/{serviceName}/user

GET /dedicated/ceph/98d166d8-7c88-47b7-9cb6-63acd5a59c15/user
[
  {
    mdsCaps: ""
    monCaps: "allow r"
    serviceName: "98d166d8-7c88-47b7-9cb6-63acd5a59c15"
    name: "myuser"
    osdCaps: "allow class-read object_prefix rbd_children"
    key: "AQA9KpdXoBrDNhAAFCM7m/XOtmWh3LMSNlHVqw=="
  }
]
