Write the following into the Server Console to OP a Player:

op [playername]

You csn remove OP-Rights by using the following command:

deop [playername]

Every OP can op and deop other players

Alternatively you can edit the document in your server folder that contains the op names. Its enough to write your playername on the first line if the document was previously empty.

Minecraft will convert that name into the new OP-saving-method which also saves permission level if the document is completely empty besides the list of names. (Every playername on seperate lines)
