2-4 Starting Up and Logging on to the XP Remote Web Console™

Because the initial user ID has default administrator-level access, one of the first tasks for the XP Remote Web

Console administrator should be to change the password. If you are logging on to XP Remote Web Console

for the first time, use the initial user ID (administrator) and password (administrator) to log on as an

administrator, and then change the password. See section 3-3-5 for more information on changing passwords.

All user IDs and passwords are case-sensitive. If the administrator password is lost or forgotten, contact your

HP account support representative to regain access to the restricted functions.

All XP Remote Web Console (web client) users are required to log on to the XP Remote Web Console SVP (web

server) with a valid user ID and password before executing the XP Remote Web Console Java™ applet program.

Storage administrators with superuser authority can assign or modify administrator and user access for the entire

subsystem. Storage partition administrators with superuser authority can assign or modify user access for a

particular storage partition. See 3-3-4 for more information on administrator and user access.

Logon Specifications and Restrictions

Item Specifications

Maximum number of concurrent users

The XP12000/XP10000 Disk Array can support up to 32
concurrent users. The exceptions are displaying the Auto LUN
XP pane and executing the Export Tool; in these instances, the
limit is two concurrent users.

Logging on to multiple SVPs (web servers)

The same user can concurrently log on to more than one SVP
(web server) by opening an individual storage device list for
each SVP, downloading the web client Java™ applet program
from each SVP, and executing the Java™ applets on separate
web browser windows.

Note:

If you execute multiple web client Java™ applet

programs for multiple SVPs, insufficient memory may degrade
performance.

Logging on to the same SVPs (web server) more than once
concurrently

The same user (ID) may not have multiple concurrent sessions
with the same SVPs (web server).

Security measure

If you have failed to log on three times with the same user ID,
XP Remote Web Console stops replying for one minute. This is
not a system failure.

Logon history

All logon information, including user ID, logon and logoff
time, is recorded in the logon history, which can be viewed
by a Storage administrator with superuser authority.

Automatic logoff operation

If a user cannot normally log off, you can set a specific period
of time after which the user will be automatically logged off
from the SVP. The default is one minute, but a Storage
administrator with superuser authority can specify a different
amount of time.
