Tenant represent a user

[Ignacio Ayuste <ig...@bairesdev.com>]

Hi guys finally i was able to subscribe a multi-tenant cartrigem thanks for
all the support.

i have a couple of questions about tenant:

i created to tenants and subscribe to multi-tenant cartridge that icreated
before, the question is:

Is a Tenant represent a user in instance? for example if i created a tenant
and subscribe to my instance, and the subscribe is correct, then i was be
able to login to that machine with that user and be avaible in the file:
/etc/passwd as an active user?

if that isnt correct what is the purpose of create tenants?

Thanks
Ignacio

Hi Ignacio,

No, a tenant defines an organization [1]. Once you create a tenant you can
create users under that tenant.
