HP 3PAR Management Console 4.5.1 Software User Guide

4. If you do not want a secured connection, clear the Secure Connection checkbox. Otherwise,
click OK.
NOTE: Management Console version 4.4.1 and earlier will only be able to connect insecurely
(Secure Connection unchecked on the Connect dialog) to the HP 3PAR Storage System after
the installation of Patch 16.
For SSL connections, host name verification is required. The first time you log into the system,
you will receive a certificate confirmation dialog. Click OK to cache the SSL certificate and
log into the system. If the certificate information is not correct, click Cancel and contact your
administrator. You will not be able to log into the system until you accept the certificate.
The certificate file is saved to \<home directory>\InFormMC\security. Once you accept the
certificate, the Confirm Certificate dialog does not appear on subsequent connections.
A secured connection is the preferred connection type. Consider using an insecure connection
only if your system is behind a firewall or if you are using encryption that noticeably reduces
the connection speed.
NOTE: Management Console does not support connections to different storage systems at the
same time using the same credentials when there are different Secure Data Ports (when connecting
securely) or Unsecured Data Ports (when connecting insecurely) on the systems. Connect to individual
storage systems one at a time in such scenario.
