allow administration rights on the Sun Storage 7000 Unified Storage System; it is not for file system
ownership or file creation privileges. The user should also be associated with the built-in "basic" role as
well as the VMUser_Role configured above.

The final (optional) step is to upload an SSH Public Key for the user to allow administration and
scripting without having to enter a password for every login.

1. On a UNIX® or Microsoft Windows client or a VMware Remote CLI virtual appliance, log in

as the vmuser and generate keys:
$ ssh-keygen -t rsa
$ ssh-keygen -t dsa

2. The above steps will create public key files in ~/.ssh/id_rsa.pub and

~/.ssh/id_dsa.pub.

3. Log in to the Sun Storage 7000 Unified Storage System as the vmuser.
4. Under Configuration -> Preferences, click (+) to add an entry.
5. Choose either RSA or DSA.
