Establishing Site Administrators
When Windchill is installed, an administrator user is established (for example, wcadmin). This initial administrator is verified any time the method server is restarted. The initial administrator is also the first member of the Administrators group. In an out-of-the-box installation, the members of the Administrators group have full control over all Windchill objects and are commonly called the system or site administrators. While it is possible to use this initial administrator to create other contexts and establish teams, PTC recommends creating another site administrator to oversee context creation and management. Creating another administrator improves the performance of Windchill start-up. You can create another site administrator using the Participant Administration utility by assigning a user to the Administrators group.
