HP 3PAR StoreServ Cluster Extension Software Administrator Guide

Provide the required information and click Generate to generate a new HP 3PAR StoreServ
password file for the given array.
• User: HP 3PAR user
• Password: HP 3PAR password for the given user.
• Password file name: The name of the password file that will be generated on clicking
Generate button. This is an optional parameter; the default value will be
<System>_<User>.pwd.
• Password file path: The windows directory where the HP 3PAR StoreServ password file
needs to be created.
If the array certificate is not cached in the local failover cluster node, then you are prompted
to cache the certificate as an exception as shown. The following screen will not be displayed
if the exception file already exits in the failover cluster node.
If you accept to cache the certificate as an exception, then the exception file is created in the
local system. If TPDCERTDIR environment variable is set, then the exception file is created in
that location. Otherwise, the exception file is created in the currently logged on user profile
directory [%USERPROFILE%\.hp3par].
If you do not accept the certificate as an exception, then the exception file and the 3PAR CLI
password files are not generated. If the password file and the exception file do not exist in
the failover cluster nodes for every participating array, then CLX does not function.
