Note: Unlike Icingaweb2, all configuration of Icinga2 happens via text file configurations and/or a REST API.  The text files all reside in `orange.megaphonetech.com:/etc/icinga2/conf.d`.

### User Management
7
Add an entry to `users.conf` that uses the following pattern:
8
9
    object User "jon" {
10
      import "generic-user"
11
      display_name = "Jon Snow"
12
      groups = [ "icingaadmins" ]
13
      email = "jon@example.org"
14
    }

**At the time of this writing, adding a user to "icingaadmins" will cause them to receive ALL notifications on all issues.**

As an administrator, go to **Configuration menu » Authorization »Users**.  There's an administrator login in the password manager.  After creating the user, select it and press the "Create New Membership" button to add the user to the "Administrators" group.
