INFO

There is an option to activate a superuser account in your Datameer X distribution. This account is a security measure for Datameer X system administrators to correct misconfigurations (e.g., external authentication services not functioning) within Datameer X if they are unable to do so with another account. This user is only designed to modify configurations in Datameer X and is not suitable to be treated as a normal user who owns and runs Datameer X jobs.

This superuser account is not enabled by default.

Configuring the Superuser Setup

To enable the superuser account:

  1. Change the property 'das.superuser.enabled=' to the value "true" in <Datameer X install folder>/conf/default.properites. 

  2. Save the file and restart Datameer.

    das.superuser.enabled=true
    das.superuser.username=superuser
    das.superuser.password=<password>
