Access to the StorMan server can be controlled by assigning a userid and password managed by StorMan using the CLI storauth.
Stand-alone
For StorMan stand-alone configurations StorMan is initially installed without access authorization. After defining the first StorMan user, an authorization is required to access StorMan. This applies also after StorMan update installations.
If a userid and password protection is set, for any call from CLI the combination of userid and password must be specified. To access the WebUI, user and password must be specified in the login screen.
FUJITSU BS2000 SE Servers
On FUJITSU BS2000 SE servers the StorMan WebUI is accessed directly from SE Manager for all authorized users. All users with SE Manager roles Administrator and Service are allowed to access StorMan if they are additionally defined as StorMan user. The authorization for specific StorMan functions depends on the assigned StorMan roles to the StorMan user. The assignment is managed by StorMan. The Storman users admin and service are defined by default during StorMan installation.
CLI calls are allowed on the MU for authorized users with the roles Service or Administrator, without additional specification of StorMan user and password.
The StorMan user administration manages the StorMan roles to control the storage management.
