Provisioning
Provisioning controls the server (Unix) account an application uses and how that account is created across your servers. Configure it on the application’s Provisioning tab.
Provisioning modes
- Disabled — application accounts are not created automatically.
- Lazy — an account is created only when a service token first requests access to a server.
- Automatic — accounts are created asynchronously on all available servers.
Settings
- Server username (required) — the Unix account name. Changing it automatically links matching system users on existing servers.
- Shell (optional) — defaults to
/usr/sbin/nologin. - Home directory (optional) — uses the OS default if left empty.
- UID (optional) — must be 1000 or higher and unique within the workspace.
Two toggles control behavior:
- Enable provisioning — allows accounts to be created when a token requests access (set a server username first).
- Automatic provisioning — creates the account on all available servers asynchronously. Enabling it asks for confirmation, since it may not apply to every server immediately.
System users
The System users tab lists the server accounts linked to the application, each marked as manually linked or auto-linked (matched by username). You can assign additional system users or unassign existing links.
