IMPORTANT: A primary key violation error is displayed when you have the same IP
address or DNS name listed in both the Discovery list (Discovery > Setup) and in the
Windows Proxy list. If you have already entered the IP address for a host into the discovery
list (Discovery > Setup), provide its DNS name in the Windows Proxy list. Likewise, if the
DNS name for a host is listed in the Discovery list, provide its IP address in the Windows
Proxy list.

Configuring Windows Proxy Authentication
To discover the Windows proxy, the management server requires by default the password and user
name of the administrator's account of the host. If you do not want to use the administrator's
password for discovery, you can modify the winproxy.conf file so that another user name and
password can be used. The following options are available to you:
• Create another Windows account for the host - You can provide a user name and password
other than the administrator's for discovery. Just create a Windows account for the host. You
must then set the following properties in the
[install_directory]\WindowsProxy\winproxy.conf file to true:
winproxy.allowAllWindowsUsers and winproxy.authenticateWindowsUsers.
After you modify the winproxy.conf file, you must restart the AppStorWinProxy service,
which is the service for the Windows proxy. Refer to the following example:
wrapper.java.additional.7=-Dwinproxy.authenticateWindowsUsers=true
wrapper.java.additional.#=-Dwinproxy.allowAllWindowsUsers=true
where # is the next consecutive number in the list of properties, for example
wrapper.java.additional.7. This number can change based on the number of
properties under # Java Additional Parameters in the winproxy.conf file.
• Create a user name and password in the winproxy.conf file - If you do not want to use
Windows authentication to create another user account, you can set a user name and
password in the winproxy.conf file. Although this user name and password can be used to
discover the Windows proxy, it cannot be used to log into the host running the Windows proxy.
