HP Insight Control for Linux 6.2 User Guide

6.2.2 Creating a user account and enabling virtual media on the management
processor
You must create a user account on the management processor, if one doesn’t already exist. The
user name and password must match the management processor user name and password you
specified when you installed Insight Control for Linux. The iLO is capable of supporting multiple
user accounts; if your iLO was already configured with other user accounts you can just add
another user account.
IMPORTANT: Do not use the following characters in the password for iLO user accounts:
(double quote)"
(dollar)$
(percent)%
(at)@
(back quote)`
NOTE: If you forgot the user name and password you entered for the management processor
when you installed Insight Control for Linux or if you want to change them, select
Configure→Management Processor→Credentials and specify the new Default Management
Processor Credentials.
Be aware that a user account must exist on the iLO; the account is required to enable setting up
new credentials.
For more information on management processor credentials, see “Management Processor
Credentials” (page 213).
1. Log into the management processor, then select User Administration on the left side of the
window.
2. Set the user name for the account.
3. Enter and confirm the password.
4. Set the Virtual Media radio button to Allowed.
