Setting the management server domain and credentials

The management server domain and credential information should be configured before adding or modifying specific IBM® storage systems in the Microsoft SCOM monitoring list.

Procedure

You can use the SCOMU.cmd utility and the --sc-set command to configure the management server information.

To configure the management server information on the agent, type the following details in a single command line:

Server name (--servername) of the management server.
Domain (--domain) of the management server.
User name (--username) and password (--password).

Important:

If the management server user account and software development kit (SDK) user account are different, use the username and password of the SDK user account.
The domain of the management server must be the same domain of the SCOM agent nodes.

To configure the management server information on the server, type the following details in a single command line:
- Server name (--servername) of the management server.
