Managing users who can access a public PaaS provider

This topic describes how you can manage users for various PaaS providers:

• • Managing Cloud Foundry provider users
    
  • Managing Docker provider users
    

Managing Cloud Foundry provider users

If you create a public PaaS provider by using Cloud Foundry, you can manage users who can access the provider.

1. In the Providers Workspace, select a PublicPaasCloudFoundry provider type.
2. Click the Mapping User Account button  to open the Manage User Accounts dialog box.
   
3. In the User Name field, enter the name of a user you would like to add, and press Enter.
4. Enter the parameter values for the user in the table.
   The parameters that appear are determined when you set up the integration. For example, for Cloud Foundry, the email ID and encrypt:password parameters appear. You will enter the email ID (user name) and password for the Cloud Foundry account.
5. Click Save.
6. To edit a user:
   1. Select the user name from the table on the left.
   2. Click the Edit button.
   3. Make the necessary changes in the parameter table.
   4. Click Save.
   5. To delete a user, select the user name, and click the Delete button .

Managing Docker provider users

If you create a public PaaS provider by using Docker, you can manage users who can access the provider.

1. In the Providers Workspace, select a PublicPaasDocker provider type.
2. Click the Mapping User Account button  to open the Manage User Accounts dialog box.
   
3. In the User Name field, enter the name of a user you would like to add, and press Enter.
   This user is a logical representation of the client-side SSL certificates used to connect the Platform Manager to the Docker host.

• Enter the authentication parameter values for the user in the table.
  The parameters that appear are determined when you set up the integration. The following table lists the parameters that you must use for Docker:

  Parameter	Description
  Hostname	Specify the host name of the Docker host or the Swarm manager host name of the Docker host.
  Port	Specify the port on which the Docker service is running on the host or the port on which the Swarm Manager service is running on the host.
  Is Secured	Indicates whether the connection is secure. Valid values: true (default) and false. When set to true, the client-side SSL certificate information is captured from the user in the following parameters: (i) File Path for importing Certifying Authority (ii) File Path for importing Client Certificate (iii) File Path for importing Client Private Key
  File Path for importing Certifying Authority	(If Is Secured = true) Specify the path from which the certifying authority file will be imported
  File Path for importing Client Certificate	(If Is Secured = true) Specify the path from which the client certificate file will be imported
  File Path for importing Client Private Key	(If Is Secured = true) Specify the path from which the private key file will be imported
