HP XP P9000 Command View Advanced Edition Suite Software 7.5.0-00 Installation and Configuration Guide (TB581-96344, July 2013)

When managing the virtualization server VMware ESX by using Device Manager, you need to apply
the latest virtualization server configuration to the database by using one of the following methods:
• In the Add Hosts window, re-register the virtualization server in Device Manager.
• From the Hosts tab in the Administration tab, update the information for each virtualization server.
In configurations where all the virtual servers are managed together by VMware vCenter Server, you
can conveniently update (overwrite) information for all of the virtualization servers by re-registering
the revised vMA or VMware vCenter Server information.
1. Log in to Device Manager using the System account.
2. On the Administration tab, click Managed Resources.
3. On the Hosts tab, click Add Hosts.
4. Specify the necessary information in the Add Hosts window.
All virtualization server information is updated (overwritten) immediately.
Resetting user accounts
To improve user account security from versions earlier than 5.7, change user account passwords.
1. Log in to Device Manager using the System account.
2. On the Administration tab, click Users and Permissions.
3. Select the user.
4. Click Change Password.
5. Type the new password and verify it.
6. Click OK.
7. Confirm that the user can log in with the new password.
Roles and permissions after upgrades
When upgrading from 7.1.0 and earlier, user roles or permissions can change.
To verify user account status after upgrading, output the following CSV files:
• user information (you can verify the user group for each user account).
• user group information (you can verify the resource group or roles for each user group).
Managing accounts by users
When upgrading, user accounts change according to the version before the upgrade, the user
permissions (roles), and the resource groups. The storage administrator must review user account
settings for the new environment.
Managing accounts by groups
When linked to external authorization servers, nested groups acquire the permissions (roles) specified
for the higher-level groups.
Because permissions (roles) of users who belong to nested groups can change after an upgrade, the
storage administrator must review:
• Device Manager roles
• Tiered Storage Manager permissions
• Replication Manager permissions and user roles
