♦Security settings – Setting up the NEC ESMPRO User Group

To make the applications run on the management PC have proper access rights, the NEC ESMPRO User Gr

oup is needed. The NEC ESMPRO User Group name should be determined during the installation. The Mana

ger setup names it "Admi nistrators" by default.

If you want to sp ecify another user group n ame, you must create it before installing the NEC ESMPRO Mana

ger and specify the group name during installation. The NEC ESMPR O User Group is case s ensitive.

Also, to make this securit y feature function effectively, install the NEC ESMPRO Mana ger on a hard drive for

matted with NTFS.

When you create the NEC ESMPRO User Group as a global group, make sure that there is no loca

l group having the sam e name. Also, when you install the N EC ESMPRO Manager on a Ba ckup Do

main Controller, you m ust create it as a global group.

♦Confirming the disk space required for operation

Prepare sufficient free space in the fo lder you specified at installation. By default, the installation folder is "¥ Pr

ogram Files¥ESMPRO" on t he system drive.

The following files are added at op eration. See t hem before you calculate the required disk space.

 Managed server

About 10KB of disk sp ace is required per managed server.

Moreover, when the IPMI inf ormation is co llected, maximum of 60KB of disk sp ace is required.

 Alert

About 1KB of disk sp ace is required per alert.

♦Setting access permissions

When installing the NEC ESMPRO Manager in an already existing folder, the NEC ESMPRO Manager will not

operate unless the access permissions required for the NEC ESMPR O Manager operation have been set.

When installing the NEC ESMPRO Manager in a fold er that does not exist, the follo wing access permissions

are set b y the installer:

Administrators Full Co ntrol(All)(All)

Everyone Read(RX)(RX)

SYSTEM Full Control(All)(All)

If you specified a user grou p other than the defaul t (Administrators) as the NEC ESMPRO User Group at the

installation, Full Control access permissions will be set for it.
