Owner's Manual

Creating Connections License Manager Domain Groups

The following groups are created in the Windows Server Active Directory during installation of Dell Server

Management Pack Suite or Dell Connections License Manager:

• Dell Connections License Administrators

• Dell Connections License Operators

• Dell Connections License Users

If the preceding domain groups are not automatically created during installation, then manually create

the groups. To create domains and add users to domains, see the Windows documentation from

Microsoft at technet.microsoft.com.

NOTE: After creating the required domain groups add your Management Server Machine Account

as part of the Dell Connections License Users group and add the current user account to the Dell

Connections License Administrators group.

Domain User Credentials

Dell Connections License Manager (DCLM) uses domain membership to determine the privileges for

granting a license. Therefore, the Dell Device Helper COM+ application requires domain user credentials

to obtain the licenses from DCLM.

The credentials are directly configured in the COM+ application, in the Dell Device Helper Properties →

This user: window. The password is not stored in the Dell Server Management Pack Suite or COM+

application for later use.
