Adding new users, administrators, and groups

In the HP StoreOnce Enterprise Manager, you can add new users from Active Directory (AD). To provide access to AD users, you must add the LDAP server information, and then import the AD group from AD. After a group is imported from AD to the HP StoreOnce Enterprise Manager, all users of that group can log in to the HP StoreOnce Enterprise Manager. Their information is saved in the HP StoreOnce Enterprise Manager database.

NOTE: The default authentication mechanism for the HP StoreOnce Enterprise Manager is local. After the initial configuration, you can change the authentication mechanism from local to LDAP. Login procedures and procedures for adding users differs based on the authentication mechanism selected. The following procedures are appropriate for the local authentication mechanism; see “Configuring LDAP authentication” (page 94) for LDAP information.

Adding users locally

To add new users or administrators, if you are using the local authentication mechanism:

1.From the Navigation tree under Administration, select User Management.

2.On the Active Users tab, click Add.

The Add New User dialog box appears.

3.In the General section, type the appropriate information into each field of the Add New User dialog box, using the information presented to the right of the fields to ensure the values are acceptable.

For example, do not include dashes, spaces, or periods in the User Contact Number field. NOTE: The user ID is not case sensitive.

4.In the Role Selection section, select the appropriate radio button to designate whether the person being added is an Administrator or a User.

5.If all information is complete, click Submit.

6.The Success dialog box appears.

7.Click OK to exit the dialog box, and return to the User Management screen. The newly-added user or administrator is included in the list of users.
