Altus Director integration with Active Directory

Scenario:

I recently integrated Altus Director with Active Directory for role based authentication & authorisation. After implementation I noticed that the default admin credential (admin/admin) was not working anymore, which was expected.

 

My question is:

  1. Is it possible/recommended to create another 'admin' user in Altus director (or in Active Directory) as a master credential just for back-up?
  2. Do Altus Director have a Authentication Backend Order (eg. Database then External) like we have in Cloudera Manager?
  3. Suppose, if a user is present in admin group as well as readonly group, then what role does Altus Director assumes for that user?

Thank you.
