10.5 HP StoreVirtual Storage Application-Aware Snapshot Manager Deployment Guide (AX696-96253, March 2013)

Setting credentials to authenticate management groups
The following information is required to authenticate each management group for the Application
Aware Snapshot Manager:
• Management group name
• User name and password for logging in to the management group.
Set default credentials that work for all management groups or set credentials for individual
management groups.
NOTE: With the latest version of the Application Aware Snapshot Manager, the credentials may
be already configured because the system may automatically discover authentication from the
SAN.
Using the Credentials Wizard to set credentials
The Credentials Wizard discovers all of the management groups on the subnet where you installed
the Application Aware Snapshot Manager. You can then set default or individual credentials for
each management group as appropriate, and test the credentials to confirm they are set correctly.
Figure 2 Opening the Credentials Wizard
1. From the Action menu, click Credentials Wizard.
The wizard may take a few minutes to discover the management groups on the subnet.
2. To use default credentials for one or more management groups, enter the credentials in the
first window of the credentials wizard, select Use default credentials, and click Next.
3. For each management group that opens, do one of the following:
• Use the default credentials by leaving the Use default credentials checkbox selected.
• Clear the checkbox to enter individual credentials for the management group
4. Click Test to verify the credentials for that management group.
If the credentials test fails, verify the correct credentials for that management group in the HP
StoreVirtual Centralized Management Console and try again.
5. Click Next to continue, repeating steps 3 and 4 for each management group.
6. When you have finished adding credentials, click Done.
