    Figure 11.11. Save Modified User Attributes

After you update user details in the web UI, the new values are not synchronized immediately. It might take up to approximately 5 minutes before the new values are reflected at the client system.

Editing Users from the Command Line

To modify a user in the active or preserved states, use the ipa user-mod command. To modify a user in the stage state, use the ipa stageuser-mod command.
The ipa user-mod and ipa stageuser-mod commands accept the following options:
  • the user login, which identifies the user account to be modified
  • options specifying the new attribute values
For a complete list of user entry attributes that can be modified from the command line, see the list of options accepted by ipa user-mod and ipa stageuser-mod. To display the list of options, run the commands with the --help option added.
Simply adding an attribute option to ipa user-mod or ipa stageuser-mod overwrites the current attribute value. For example, the following changes a user's title or adds a new title if the user did not yet have a title specified:
$ ipa user-mod user_login --title=new_title

For LDAP attributes that are allowed to have multiple values, IdM also accepts multiple values. For example, a user can have two email addresses saved in their user account. To add an additional attribute value without overwriting the existing value, use the --addattr option together with the option to specify the new attribute value. For example, to add a new email address to a user account that already has an email address specified:
$ ipa user-mod user --addattr=mobile=new_mobile_number
--------------------
Modified user "user"
--------------------
  User login: user
...
  Mobile Telephone Number: mobile_number, new_mobile_number
...

To set two attribute values at the same time, use the --addattr option twice:
$ ipa user-mod user --addattr=mobile=mobile_number_1 --addattr=mobile=mobile_number_2
Copy to Clipboard Toggle word wrap
The ipa user-mod command also accepts the --setattr option for setting attribute values and the --delattr option for deleting attribute values. These options are used in a way similar to using --addattr. For details, see the output of the ipa user-mod --help command.
Note
To overwrite the current email address for a user, use the --email option. However, to add an additional email address, use the mail option with the --addattr option:
$ ipa user-mod user --email=email@example.com

$ ipa user-mod user --addattr=mail=another_email@example.com
