# Managing the system

The system can be managed using the [admin dashboard](/dedicated-instance/on-premises-op/managing-the-system/admin-dashboard.md) with any user belonging to the sysadmin account. The initial sysadmin account is provisioned during installation. Please note that each user that is added to the sysadmin account is able to manage the system, regardless of the role he has in such account.&#x20;

In order for the platform to run successfully a license is needed and it's provided by Meterian. The license needs to be phisically copied on the target machine: please see the README file contained in the installation script for instructions.

Within the constraints defined by the license, new accounts can be created using the dashboard.&#x20;
