Adding multiple users 3

[phorbiuz]

I've been given a list of 346 users to add to our system!

Joy!

Anyway, obviously it will be best to script this, made simpler by the fact they're all in the same group using the same shell etc etc. The only differences will be the id, uid, and home dir. I'm going to allocate uid's consecutively starting at 2000.

However, this is a HACMP cluster of 2 nodes. Anyone know the best way to do this?

Thanks.

then use cspoc in the script - command like below:

/usr/es/sbin/cluster/cspoc/fix_args nop cl_mkuser id='theUID' pgrp=thegroup' groups='thegroupset' gecos='Name Surename' accountname

Did you look at faq52-5866 - it will need some modification but it will do the job for you.
