Solaris11 :Roles can only be assumed by authorized users

Fresh install an OS-Solaris 11 ,then create a common user account as ' work ',then login as work,and su to root ,in order to create a another common user account .

At this point usually meet the problem as follow,

-------------------------------------------------

test@crazyhorse:~$ su
Password:
Roles can only be assumed by authorized users
su: Sorry

-------------------------------------------------

The solution of the above is that to vi /etc/user_attr file.Add a line as follow,

-------------------------------

#
# The system provided entries are stored in different files
# under "/etc/user_attr.d".  They should not be copied to this file.
#
# Only local changes should be stored in this file.
# This line should be kept in this file or it will be overwritten.
#
root::::type=role
work::::lock_after_retries=no;profiles=System Administrator;roles=root
test::::lock_after_retries=no;profiles=System Administrator;roles=root

------------------------------

(Note:Add the line '' test::::lock_after_retries=no;profiles=System Administrator;roles=root '', already.  )

Then Save.

The solution II for urgency : You can su to work first,then su to root with work account.
