Storage Essentials 5.1 User Guide 177
IMPORTANT: The service must be running for users to access the management server.
On Microsoft Windows:
a. Go to the Services window, usually accessible from the Control Panel.
b. Right-click AppStorManager.
c. Select Stop from the drop-down menu.
d. To start the management server, right-click AppStorManager and select Start from the
drop-down menu.
On UNIX systems:
a. Open a command prompt window.
b. Enter the following at the command prompt to stop the management server:
/etc/init.d/appstormanager stop
c. To start the management server, enter the following at the command prompt:
/etc/init.d/appstormanager start
2. Login as the designated administrator account you specified in ”Step 1 - Configure the
Management Server to Use Active Directory or LDAP” on page 169.
For example, the user name would be the following:
• Active Directory - domain\PrimaryUser
• LDAP - PrimaryUser
where
PrimaryUser is the name of the user account in LDAP or is the designated primary user
in Active Directory.
The password would be the following: [NTdomainpassword].
Step 3 - Add Users to the Management Server
You must now add your Active Directory/LDAP users to the management server. This step is required
to prevent accidental access to the management server from other AD/LDAP users. Until the user is
authenticated against Active Directory/LDAP, the management server views the user as an internal
user, whose password can be changed within the management server.
Once a user is authenticated against Active Directory/LDAP, the user is tagged as an external user
and the user’s password must be managed through Active Directory/LDAP.
1. Log onto the management server by using the designated Admin account specified in ”Step 1 -
Configure the Management Server to Use Active Directory or LDAP” on page 169.
2. Create your users as described in ”Adding Users” on page 154.
Keep in mind the following:
• (Active Directory) Prefix the user name with the domain name, for example:
domain\newuser.
• The user names you create by using the management server must match the user names in
Active Directory/LDAP.
• It is not necessary to create a password since passwords used for login are those already
configured on either the AD or LDAP server.
