Tips For Using The Help Window; System Concepts; About User Accounts - HP P2000 Reference Manual

• If a SMU session is active on a controller and the controller is power cycled or is forced offline by the
partner controller or certain other events occur, the session might hang. SMU might say that it is
"Connecting" but stop responding, or the page may become blank with the browser status "Done."
After the controller comes back online, the session will not restart. To continue using SMU, close and
reopen the browser and start a new SMU session.
• Colors that identify how storage space is used are described in
page 33.
• Icons shown in the Configuration View panel are described in
page 33.

Tips for using the help window

• To display help for a component in the Configuration View panel, right-click the component and select
Help. To display help for the content in the main panel, click either Help in the menu bar or the help

System concepts

About user accounts

The system provides three default user accounts and allows a maximum of 12 user accounts to be
configured. Any account can be modified or removed except you cannot remove the user you are signed in
as.
User accounts have these options:
• User Name. A user name is case sensitive; cannot already exist in the system; cannot include a
comma, double quote, or backslash; and can have a maximum of 29 bytes.
• Password. A password is case sensitive. A password cannot include a comma, double quote, or
backslash.
• User Roles. Select Monitor to let the user view system settings, or Manage to let the user view and
change system settings. You cannot change the roles of user manage.
User Type. Select Standard to allow access to standard functions, or Advanced to allow access to all
•
functions except diagnostic functions, or Diagnostic to allow access to all functions.
NOTE: This release has no functions that require Advanced or Diagnostic access; a Standard user can
access all functions.
• WBI Access. Allows access to the web-based management interface.
• CLI Access. Allows access to the command-line management interface.
• FTP Access. Allows access to the file transfer protocol interface, which provides a way to install
firmware updates and download logs.
• Base Preference. The base for entry and display of storage-space sizes. In base 2, sizes are shown as
powers of 2, using 1024 as a divisor for each magnitude. In base 10, sizes are shown as powers of 10,
using 1000 as a divisor for each magnitude. Operating systems usually show volume size in base 2.
Disk drives usually show size in base 10. Memory (RAM and ROM) size is always shown in base 2.
• Precision Preference. The number of decimal places (1–10) for display of storage-space sizes.
• Unit Preference. Sets the unit for display of storage-space sizes. The Auto option lets the system
determine the proper unit for a size. Based on the precision setting, if the selected unit is too large to
meaningfully display a size, the system uses a smaller unit for that size. For example, if the unit is set to
TB, precision is set to 1, and base is set to 10, the size 0.1 1709 TB is shown as 1 17.1 GB.
