In the Management Console, go to:

Environments -> ac-env -> System Manager (near the bottom left of the page).

In "What user should be a system manager?", add the DN for the user you want to make the System Manager, then press Validate and make sure no errors are returned. Press Next if there are no errors.

Admin Role EQUALS System Manager
Make sure System Manager is selected.
Press Finish

Make sure that there are no errors or warnings in the "System Manager Configuration Output"

If there are, please send them to me if you are not sure of the meaning.

Login as the new user and make sure that the new user works.
