Managing user identities
You can manage user identities by creating user-mapping rules.
When you create user-mapping rules, it is important to remember the following information:
- You can only create user-mapping rules if you are connected to the cluster through the System zone; however, you can apply user-mapping rules to specific access zones. If you create a user-mapping rule for a specific access zone, the rule applies only in the context of its zone.
- When you change user-mapping on one node, OneFS propagates the change to the other nodes.
- After you make a user-mapping change, the OneFS authentication service reloads the configuration.
