In a StorageGRID deployment with only one Primary Admin Node, where is the Grid Manager local user database (including the built-in root account) stored? If the Primary Admin Node is completely lost and only the Recovery Package remains, how is the root account recovered?

 

Thanks.

According to https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/storagegrid/maintain/recovering-from-primary-admin-node-failures.html

and

https://docs.netapp.com/us-en/storagegrid/maintain/restoring-admin-node-database-primary-admin-node.html

 

Recovery package store node configuration and node password.

 

admin node database store historical states.

 

Prometheus metrics database store metrics values.

 

where the Grid Manager local users and groups are store ?



 

or how to backup Grid Manager local users/groups and ILM police on a single admin node grid ?

It seems StorageGRID stores users/groups/ILM policies in grid storage nodes.
