Using the Security Manager

Use the Security Manager to give users the ability to connect to a management service from other systems and to configure and view the attached enclosures. You must configure at least one user name and password before any user can connect to the management service.

Note: You cannot disable security for a management service.

Use the following actions in the Security Manager to manage users' ability to configure and view iSCSI storage:

The first time you open the Security Manager, the Adaptec Storage Manager prompts you to type an Admin (administrator) password. Either type a password or click Cancel to not have an Admin user.

The Security Manager interface

The Security Manager consists of the following:

Toolbar
Provides quick-path icons for common tasks.
Security list
Displays the users with access to this management service.

The Security Manager logs events to a logging file, RAIDSEC.LOG. If this file exceeds 200 KB, the Adaptec Storage Manager copies the file to RAIDSEC.OLD and creates a new RAIDSEC.LOG. If there is a RAIDSEC.OLD already, the Adaptec Storage Manager overwrites it.
