Dynamic IDs for TAS users
The TAS user group and the TAS service accounts have default IDs. If these IDs are in use or conflict with your requirements, TAS supports dynamic user IDs. You can change the IDs during installation by defining them in the inventory file.
TAS user group
The TAS user group is used to control access to TAS folders. All TAS service accounts must be assigned to this group.
Group ID
The default group ID is 5000. If this group does not exist during installation, a default user group tas is automatically created with this ID. Unless otherwise specified in the inventory file, the tas user group is assigned this ID.
Permission set
During installation, a permission set of 770 is associated with TAS folders.
