3-2 Authentication & Security
OCC provides security features, which make sure that only authorized users can access the OCC database.
Authentication is required for operations like creating, modifying or deleting configurations and objects. The Log
on to dialog box is displayed.
Figure 3-2 OCC Log on to Dialog Box
You need to enter the user ID and the password in the User Name and Password boxes, respectively, to access
the HP NonStop host. The HP NonStop administrator specifies these. Select the Use this user-id across all nodes
check box to use the same user name across all the configured nodes. Click the OK button after specifying the
necessary details. When this box is selected, the user id and password will be verified on all nodes, so it really
only works when the password is the same across the network.
You can configure authentication information using the General tab page in the Options dialog box. To access
this, click the Options command in the Tools menu.

You can specify the time-out parameter for a particular session using the Session Timeout box in the
Authentication area in the Options dialog box. After the specified time, the system will logout and you will have
to login again. The default value is 2 hours.
