NOTE: You cannot use the IP Address box when multiple hosts are listed.

The Start Extensions on Custom Port checkbox will start the CIM extension on the specified port.

NOTE: If you configure a CIM extension to use a custom port, you must specify the custom port when setting up data collection from the management server for that host.

The Use Custom Credentials checkbox configures the CIM extensions to use a user name and password that you specify. This username and password are known only to the CIM extensions and do not identify a real user on the host system.

NOTE: If you configure a CIM extension to use a non-default username and password, you must specify those credentials rather than those for the host’s “root” or “administrator” user when setting up data collection from the management server for that host .
