 a) Management User (mgmt-users.properties)
 b) Application User (application-users.properties)
(a): b

Enter the details of the new user to add.
Realm (ApplicationRealm) :
Username : test
Password :
Re-enter Password :
What roles do you want this user to belong to? (Please enter a comma separated list, or leave blank for none)[  ]: guest
About to add user 'test' for realm 'ApplicationRealm'
Is this correct yes/no? yes
Added user 'test' to file 'C:\runtime\jboss-eap-6.0\standalone\configuration\application-users.properties'
Added user 'test' to file 'C:\runtime\jboss-eap-6.0\domain\configuration\application-users.properties'
Added user 'test' with roles guest to file 'C:\runtime\jboss-eap-6.0\standalone\configuration\application-roles.properties'
Added user 'test' with roles guest to file 'C:\runtime\jboss-eap-6.0\domain\configuration\application-roles.properties'
Is this new user going to be used for one AS process to connect to another AS process e.g. slave domain controller?
yes/no? no
Press any key to continue . . .

The script modifies the following files:

${JBOSS_HOME}/standalone/configuration/application-users.properties
${JBOSS_HOME}/standalone/configuration/application-roles.properties
${JBOSS_HOME}/standalone/domain/configuration/application-users.properties
${JBOSS_HOME}/standalone/domain/configuration/application-roles.properties

A WildFly process is not required to be present in order for the operation to succeed.

Add a User to the Management Realm

This is an example of how to add a user to the management realm with add-user.sh.

If this user will be used only for node access and it does not correspond to a subordinate host controller, answer "no" to "Is this new user going to be used for one AS process to connect to another AS process? e.g. for a slave host controller connecting to the master or for a Remoting connection for server to server EJB calls." below.

nombp1:bin ovidiu$ ./add-user.sh 

What type of user do you wish to add? 
 a) Management User (mgmt-users.properties) 
 b) Application User (application-users.properties)
(a): a

Enter the details of the new user to add.
Using realm 'ManagementRealm' as discovered from the existing property files.
Username : novaordis.management.user
Password requirements are listed below. To modify these restrictions edit the add-user.properties configuration file.
 - The password must not be one of the following restricted values {root, admin, administrator}

About to add user 'novaordis.management.user' for realm 'ManagementRealm'
Is this correct yes/no? yes
Added user 'novaordis.management.user' to file '/Users/ovidiu/runtime/jboss-eap-6.3/standalone/configuration/mgmt-users.properties'
Added user 'novaordis.management.user' to file '/Users/ovidiu/runtime/jboss-eap-6.3/domain/configuration/mgmt-users.properties'
Added user 'novaordis.management.user' with groups DomainManagement to file '/Users/ovidiu/runtime/jboss-eap-6.3/standalone/configuration/mgmt-groups.properties'
Added user 'novaordis.management.user' with groups DomainManagement to file '/Users/ovidiu/runtime/jboss-eap-6.3/domain/configuration/mgmt-groups.properties'
Is this new user going to be used for one AS process to connect to another AS process? 
e.g. for a slave host controller connecting to the master or for a Remoting connection for server to server EJB calls.
yes/no? yes
To represent the user add the following to the server-identities definition <secret value="bm9tdTEyMyE=" />

The script modifies the following files:

$JBOSS_HOME/standalone/configuration/mgmt-users.properties
$JBOSS_HOME/domain/configuration/mgmt-users.properties
$JBOSS_HOME/standalone/configuration/mgmt-groups.properties
$JBOSS_HOME/domain/configuration/mgmt-groups.properties

A WildFly process is not required to be present in order for the operation to succeed.
