Local VCL accounts are contained within the VCL database. The admin 
account is a local VCL account. Additional local accounts can be added 
after the backend management node component has been installed by 
executing the vcld file with the -setup argument:

    /usr/local/vcl/bin/vcld --setup

<pre class="docnote">
It is safe to run vcld --setup while the normal vcld daemon process 
is running on a management node. Running vcld --setup will not 
affect it.
</pre>

You will see a menu. Enter the number next to the VCL Base Module entry:
