Answer
Since UPT is a shared user authorization system for all caGrid tools, users created for each tool are grouped in the UPT CSM schema by "Application".
To create the user for caArray, you would need to first create an "Application" in UPT, point this application to the caArray installed, and then create users within the application you just created.
It is necessary to have both UPT and caArray installed before you start creating caArray users.
Launch UPT
To launch the UPT application, first open a browser and access UPT via the URL: http://<jboss.server.hostname>:<jboss.server.port>/upt

are

Create caArray Application with UPT
The following diagram shows the steps in creating a new application with UPT, as explained in the steps that follow.
Flow Diagram Showing Steps in Creating a New Application with UPT
Step 1. Login to UPT's CSM schema as "superadmin"
(This is the default username created during UPT installation). This step will sign you in to the UPT schema.
Username: superadmin
Password: changeme
Application: csmupt
Step 2. Create a User
This is going to be your application's admin. It is recommended not to use 'caarrayadmin', since 'caarrayadmin' is the default super user created in caArray CSM_user table for application data administration during caArray Installation.
Step 3. Create an Application (see sample below).
Step 4. Associate the User created in Step 2 with Application created in Step 3.
Step 5. Re-login to UPT with the username created in step 2, and with the application created in step 3 (This step signs you in the caArray Schema)
Step 6. Update Association.
Application Configuration
When you create the application, you will need to point this application to the actual application installed. It is important to enter consistent values as those specified in the application configuration file. Following is a sample set of parameters used to create the caArray application:
Application Name: caArray
Application Description: caArray description
Application Declarative Flag: Yes
Application Active Flag: Yes
Application Database URL: jdbc:mysql://localhost:3306/caarraydb

Create caArray Users with UPT
An application user can only be created after the application is created in UPT, when you log in as an application admin as shown in the illustration of login screens.
- Login to UPT with the information below:
- Username: application admin (such as: "caArray_User_Admin"
...
- created
...
- in
...
- step
...
- 2
...
- above)
...
- Password:

During

the

installation
...
process
...
for
...
UPT
...
or
...
other
...
applications,
...
a
...
CSM
...
schema
...
is
...
created
...
for
...
UPT
...
and
...
each
...
application
...
tool
...
(except
...
those
...
applications
...
that
...
do
...
not
...
need
...
a

database).
...
Each
...
CSM
...
schema
...
has
...
its
...
sampler/default
...
users
...
and
...
a
...
role/permission
...
structure.
...
For
...
the
...
UPT
...
CSM
...
schema,
...
"superadmin"
...
is
...
created
...
by
...
default,
...
which
...
has
...
the
...
privilege
...
to
...
create
...
other
...
users
...
or
...
applications.
...
For
...
the
...
caArray
...
CSM
...
schema,
...
"caArrayAdmin"
...
is
...
created
...
by
...
default,
...
which

is

a

"super

...
with
...
the

privilege
...
to

view

or

all

data.

"caArrayAdmin"

cannot

create

another

caArray

user.

The UPT Schema has database connection and administrator information for each application database. The CSM applications are included (caArray, Rembrandt, and caGWAS in the example), and the CSM_User admins. For each application, the schema lists the CSM admin and users.
