Veritas Storage Foundation Intelligent Storage Provisioning 5.0.1 Administrators Guide, HP-UX 11i v3, First Edition, November 2009

If ISP fails to authenticate with SAL, it can neither see nor use any of the associated
storage attributes.
To add the root user on the remote host as a SAL user with SAL administrator
privileges on the SAL primary
1
Create a file, such as /tmp/add_user, that contains the following single line
definition of the new SAL user:
user add [e-mail] clydenw Admin
This defines root on the remote host (island.cosmos.com in this example)
as a SAL user with SAL administrator privileges, and with a password set to
clydenw.
2
Use the following command to add the new SAL user on the SAL primary
(private.cosmos.com in this example):
# vxsalcmd private.cosmos.com:2802 -u admin -f /tmp/add_user
3
You are prompted to enter the password for the SAL administrator, in this
example named admin.
4
To view the new SAL user account, enter the following command:
# vxsalcmd private.cosmos.com:2802 -u admin user list
5
You are prompted for the SAL administrator’s password.
6
To allow ISP to communicate transparently with SAL, a local copy of the
encrypted account information for the SAL user must be set up.
Create a file, such as /tmp/maintain_user, that contains the following single
line definition of the SAL user’s password:
user rem clydenw
7
Use the following command to create the local SAL account file:
# vxsalcmd private.cosmos.com:2802 -f /tmp/maintain_user
