HP Storage Essentials V5.1 User Guide First Edition (T4283-96026, August 2006)

Discovering Applications, Backup Servers and Hosts134
• The hosts should recognize the management server by name, as a reverse look-up is required
by operating system security as well as Microsoft Exchange.
• Make sure you provide just the user name and not the domain name when discovering
Microsoft Exchange servers.
To provide information about the Microsoft Exchange servers:
1. Do one of the following:
• Discovery from HP SIM - Click Options > Protocol Settings > Storage Essentials >
Global Application. To select a target, you must have at least one element designated as a
server, workstation or desktop. If you see the message, “No Targets Currently Selected,”
change your element from unknown to either a server, workstation or desktop. Click Run
Now. Refer to the documentation for HP Systems Insight Manager.
• Discovery from HP SE - Click Tools > Storage Essentials > Home > Discovery >
Setup.
2. In the Microsoft Exchange Configuration section, click the Edit button.
3. Under the Primary Domain Controller section, perform the following steps:
a. In the Host Name field, type the fully qualified DNS name for the domain controller.
b. In the User Name field, type the user name for accessing the Microsoft Exchange server.
c. In the Domain Password field, type the corresponding password for accessing the
Microsoft Exchange server.
d. In the Verify Password field, re-type the password for verification.

Changing the Password for the Managed Database Account
The management server connects to database applications through the use of the APPIQ_USER
account, an unprivileged account with read-only privileges. You can change the password the
management server uses to connect to database applications, such as Oracle and Sybase. When
you change the password of APPIQ_USER, you must change the password of all database
applications.
Keep in mind the following:
• Change the password in all database applications before you change the password through
the user interface. The passwords must also match.
