HP Virtual Connect Manager 15
Logging on to the HP Virtual Connect Manager GUI
Log on using the user name (Administrator) and password.
You can optionally specify the authentication method or VCM role at logon.
To specify the authentication method (local, ldap, radius, tacacs), enter the authentication method followed
by a colon before the user name. For example, ldap:user1.
To specify the VCM role (domain, network, server, storage), enter the role followed by a colon before the
user name. For example, network:user1.
For more information on authentication methods and VCM roles, see "Virtual Connect users and roles (on
page 65)."
If the default password for the Administrator user has been changed and needs to be restored, see
information about resetting the administrator password and DNS settings in the HP Virtual Connect for
c-Class BladeSystem Setup and Installation Guide on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/vc/manuals).
Logon problems might be caused by the following:
• You have recently upgraded the VCM firmware. You might have to clear the browser cache before
attempting to log on again.
• The information is not being entered correctly. User names and passwords are case-sensitive.
• The account being entered is not an account for VCM.
• The account being entered has been deleted, disabled, or locked out.
• The password for the account needs to be changed.
• There is no connection to the primary VC-Enet module running VCM.
• VCM is undergoing a failover or recovery.
• The attempted IP sign-in address is not valid for the specified account.
