Organization and owner

Your view of Lenovo XClarity One is based on the organization that you are part of. When XClarity One is installed as a virtual machine, you can set up only a single organization during initial setup. You cannot request additional organizations.

Follow the steps in the wizard to create the organization and an initial user, which will be the organization owner.

Organization owners, identified using the owner icon (Organization owner icon), can manage users and configure organization-specific settings, such as the default Call Home contact, usage-metric thresholds, and data forwarders. In addition, the first organization owner also has full access to the organization by default, including hub and device administrator roles. When running XClarity One as a virtual machine, organization owners can also configure the portal, including network, date and time, and security certification.

It is recommended that you use strong passwords of 16 or more characters. By default, passwords for local user accounts must have 8 – 256 characters, including one or more uppercase and lowercase alphabetic characters, numbers, and special characters. Consider the following recommendations when creating passwords.
  • Do not use known passwords obtained from earlier breaches, leaks, or hacks.
  • Do not use dictionary words.
  • Do not use context-specific words, such as the name of a service, an email address, or derivatives thereof.
  • Do not use more than two repetitive or sequential characters (for example, aaa or 123abc).
  • Do not reuse any of the last five passwords.
