Can you not create local accounts on the FlashBlade
Can you not create local accounts on the FlashBlade if you have management hooked up to LDAPS..?
```> pureadmin create readonly --api-token
Error on readonly: Unable to find specified user.```

That's a great question, and the answer is yes! With the introduction of 4.6.8, FlashBlade supports local directory services that can be attached to different servers or realms. Please see
https://support.purestorage.com/bundle/FlashBlade_Admin_Guide_4.6.8/resource/FlashBlade_Admin_Guide_4.6.8.pdf for the detailed syntax.
- Kind of what I suspected - thank you for confirming!
- No, the only local FlashBlade account allowed is the `pureuser` account. All other accounts will come from a directory services provider (AD/LDAP)
With the introduction of the server concept in FlashBlade, is it still not possible to create local users? Are we still reliant solely on AD and LDAP for user management?
