2 Managing security and passwords
This chapter explains how to use HP P6000 Command View to manage your storage environment.
NOTE: See the HP P6000 Command View online help for detailed procedures related to managing
your storage environment. When you install HP P6000 Command View, the initial folders are
Virtual Disks, Hosts, Disk Groups, Data Replication, and Hardware. You can create subfolders to
further organize and manage your hosts and virtual disks.
Server-based HP P6000 Command View security groups
Installation of HP P6000 Command View on a management server automatically creates the
following Windows security groups on the server:
HP Storage Admins group—Members have view and manage capabilities.
HP Storage Users group—Members have view capability only.
You can set a local or domain user to have the permissions of either of these groups.
To use HP P6000 Command View or SMI-S EVA, a user with Windows administrator privileges
for the management server must create user accounts and assign them to the appropriate security
group.
Array-based HP P6000 Command View security groups
Array-based HP P6000 Command View in each HP EVA management module has one administrator
and one user account. Login credentials are set in the EVA management module and can be
configured using the HP P6000 Control Panel. For more information, see the HP P6000 Control
Panel User Guide.
Password protection for storage systems
Individual HP EVA storage systems can be password protected. When a storage system is not
password protected, all instances of server-based HP P6000 Command View in the SAN fabric
can manage the storage system. When a storage system is password protected, only instances of
server-based HP P6000 Command View that have been enabled for access can manage the
storage system.
IMPORTANT: HP recommends that you use passwords to protect your HP storage systems.
Password protection is optional but strongly recommended, especially for SAN fabrics that include
multiple instances of server-based HP P6000 Command View.
For most EVA storage systems, password protection is set using the Operator Control Panel
(OCP) on the storage system controllers. See the HP Enterprise Virtual Array User Guide.
For HP EVA4400, P6300 EVA, P6350 EVA, P6500 EVA, and P6550 EVA storage systems,
password protection is set using the HP P6000 Control Panel. See the HP P6000 Control
Panel User Guide or the HP P6000 Control Panel online help.
IMPORTANT: If your storage system is managed by an instance of server-based HP P6000
Command View, HP strongly recommends that you store or update the password in HP P6000
Command View immediately after creating or changing the password on the storage system.
Password formats
Passwords are case sensitive and can include 8 to 16 characters.
The letters A–Z in upper or lower case are allowed.
