2. In the left panel under Users, click Users.
The Powerstore Users page appears.
3. Click LDAP.
The LDAP account information appears.
4. Click Add.
The Add Account slide out panel appears.
5. For Type, select the type of LDAP account, either User or Group.
6. For Account Name, type the user name that is listed in the LDAP server.
NOTE: The account name must be the value of the ID Attribute defined in Advanced Settings under Domain
Settings on the Directory Services slide out panel. For example:
● When Global Catalog (forest-level authentication) is selected while configuring the PowerStore LDAP server, the
default value for User ID Attribute under Advanced Settings is UserPrincipalName. So the Account Name
must be a UserPrincipalName which is unique, and the format is [e-mail]
● When Global Catalog is not selected, the default value for the User ID Attribute under Advanced Settings is
sAMAccountName. The Account Name must be an sAMAccountName.
● When adding a group, the Account Name must be the value of the Group ID Attribute (example: cn)
7. For Account Role, select the role to assign to the account from the drop down list.
8. After verifying that the LDAP user or group name and the role are correct, click Apply to complete the transaction.
The added LDAP user or group account appears in the list of accounts on the PowerStore Users page.
9. If the adding LDAP account operation fails, do the following to troubleshoot the failure:
a. Verify the fields in User Search Settings under Advanced Setting are correct.
b. Verify the fields in Group Search Settings under Advanced Setting are correct.
c. Verify that the group search level is set properly.
