The Octopus system account is used when executing applications like ESI.Octopus.ADSIReaderApp.exe. We recommand to use a specific system account which will serve to validate if a user has been created following an Active Directory import. Edit

Creation steps

  • Activate the "Users" module
  • Click on action "Create a user" and enter the following information:
    • First Name : Octopus
    • Last Name : System
  • Click on OK
  • Select the user file. In the "Octopus account" tab, enter "System" as an Octopus username.
  • Click on "Assign a password" so you can create one. (This field is MANDATORY)
  • Check "System user"
  • In the "Permissions" tab, check the following ones:
    • Under General / Administer Octopus
    • All permissions underConfigurations
  • Save

To prevent an involuntary user suppression, we suggest that you add a note as *** DO NOT DELETE OR DISABLE *** in the "User" tab, Note section.
