Password protected storage arrays
If your environment implements password security on the storage arrays, modify the SraConfigurationData.xml le to
prompt for the storage array password. To modify the le, complete the following tasks:
1. Edit C:\Program Files\VMware\VMware vCenter Site Recovery Manager\storage\sra\ MD\cong\SraCongurationData.xml
le.
2. Locate the<PasswordRequiredForArrayAccess> tag.
3. Change the default value of "false" to "true".
4. Save the le changes, and then rescan SRAs within SRM Array Manager.
NOTE: All storage arrays must utilize the same security measures. If one storage array has a password set, the peer
storage array must also have the password set. Mixed authentication mode is not supported by the SRA.
<!--
configure how array access is performed.
when true, a password is prompted for once and
then used for all array access
-->
<PasswordRequiredForArrayAccess>true</PasswordRequiredForArrayAccess>
