Create a Tenant

Complete the following steps to create a tenant.

1. Login to System Management Page.
2. On the System Management page, select the Tenants tab and click Add. 
   
3. Configure the following settings for the tenant.
   1. Specify the basic information:
      1. Tenant Name — a unique name in the system, which is case-insensitive.
      2. Description (optional) — a brief text to describe the tenant. 
   2. Specify the following advanced options to customize data storage for better system performance.
      

      Note: These settings only apply if you have set up multiple MongoDB replica sets.

      1. Expand Advanced options.
      2. Select the corresponding check boxes and click Server Settings for configurations, such as IP address, replica set name, username, and password.
         
         Store tenant data on a different server — by default, all tenant data is stored in the default MongoDB replica set. If you specify another MongoDB replica set to store the data of this tenant, the data of all domains created under this tenant will also be stored on it.
         Store all live data on a different server — live data is an important part of tenant data, including device data and data view. By default, all live data is stored on the same MongoDB replica set with other tenant data.
   3. Specify the License Allocation.
      1. Assign required nodes or ports for your network modules.
         If your license supports the universal node pool, specify the maximum nodes this tenant can use. Otherwise, specify the maximum units of each network modules.
         
      2. Specify the Function Modules you can choose to apply to this tenant.
   4. Specify the user privilege by assigning the tenant access privileges and tenant administrator role to the existing users in the system.
      

      Note: By default, the tenant admin role will be assigned to the users with the system admin role.

4. Click OK.

After creating a tenant, you can create more than one domain in the tenant. See Create a Domain for more details.
