Local User Configuration Tool
Each Operations Connector instance maintains a local users store. These users can access the local Operations Connector instance only and cannot not gain access to other Operations Connector applications. When Operations Connector users launch the Operations Connector user interface, they have to provide the credentials of a local Operations Connector user, or, if smart card authentication is configured, the smart card PIN.
To add additional users to the user store, run the Operations Connector local user configuration tool user.
Note: Users added the local user store cannot be specified as Operations Connector user in the Main Settings of the OMi Connected Servers manager (Administration > Setup and Maintenance > Connected Servers). You must enter the Operations Connector administration user that you configured in the configuration wizard during installation.
The user tool is located on the Operations Connector server in:
Windows: %OvDataDir%\installation\HPOprBSMC\user.bat
Linux: /var/opt/OV/installation/HPOprBSMC/user.sh
user accepts the following options:
user -help | -list | -add <username> <password> | -delete <username> | -version
