Example One: Changing %Service_Console Authentication Mechanisms
In the second part of the example we set the authentication mechanism for %Service_Console (the service that controls the Terminal) to Instance Authentication. Then we access the Terminal.
Here are the steps:
-
Click %Service_Console on the Services page (click [Home] > [System Administration] > [Security] > [Services]) of the Management Portal.
-
On the Edit Definition page for %Service_Console click Password and make sure that no other mechanism is selected.
-
Click Save.
-
Now launch the Terminal. Click the InterSystems Launcher in your System Tray. Click Terminal from the menu.
-
Terminal prompts you for a user name and password. Enter _SYSTEM and SYS respectively:
Username: _SYSTEM Password: *** USER>
-
Execute the Write $UserName command at the prompt:
USER>Write $UserName _SYSTEM USER>
You are accessing InterSystems IRIS through the _SYSTEM account.
-
Close the Terminal. Click File—>Exit.
