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

IMPORTANT:

Because the default 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 default user ID (administrator) and password (administrator) to log

on as an administrator, and then change the password. 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. To register XP Remote Web Console user accounts, you

need the user account for which the Account Administrator role is set to Modify mode (see

Setting User Accounts (Account Pane)

” on page 86.

Specifications

Maximum number of concurrent users

The arrays can support up to 32 concurrent users.

The exceptions are displaying the XP Auto LUN 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 audit log information

file so that unauthorized access can be detected.

Automatic logoff operation

In case a user cannot normally log off, you can set

the user to be automatically logged off from the SVP

after a specific time period. This time period can be

specified by the storage administrator with the Enable

authority of Storage Administrator Role.

Restriction on Accessing Local Client Files

Java™ applets have a security feature that prohibits a user from accessing local client files for operations

within the Java™ applet sandbox. However, this security restriction can be lifted to provide access to

local files from XP Remote Web Console because the XP Remote Web Console Java™ applet has an

electronic signature.
