With Qube, you have a choice of running jobs as either a designated "user" or "proxy" or running jobs as one of the users with an account in the system. This is controlled with the proxy_execution_mode paramteter, which can be set to either user or proxy
Consequently, the Worker executes jobs in either of two modes called proxy and user. Under proxy mode, all jobs execute as the designated proxy user, regardless of who submitted them. Under user mode, all jobs execute as the user specified in the job, either the user that submitted the job, or some other specified user. All processes executed and files created would then owned by that user.
Currently, Qube installs on each Worker host a local user called qubeproxy. The Worker is configured by default to run in proxy mode with the qubeproxy user name and password for the proxy user.
- Username: qubeproxy
- Password: Pip3lin3P@$$wd
In the case of Windows, for each job that runs on a Windows host the Worker must supply three pieces of information so that the operating system will allow it to initiate processes as another user:
- Windows Domain
- User login
- User password (encrypted)
