Service Accounts
Service Accounts Overview
Service accounts are special login credentials that you can assign to
multiple interfaces. You can save time by assigning a service account to
a set of interfaces that often require a password change. You can update
the login credentials in the service account, and the change is reflected
in every interface that uses the service account.
Service accounts cannot be used for Out-of-Band interfaces or Managed
Powerstrip interfaces.
•
For DRAC, iLO, and RSA interfaces, the login credentials apply to
the embedded processor card, not the underlying OS.
•
For RDP, SSH, and Telnet interfaces, the login credentials apply to
the OS.
•
For VNC interfaces, the login credentials apply to the VNC server.
• For Web Browser interfaces, the login credentials apply to the form
available at the URL specified in the interface.
To view service accounts:
• Choose Nodes > Service Accounts. The Service Accounts page
opens.
• Click the column header to sort the table by that attribute in
ascending order. Click the header again to sort the table in
descending order. Optional.
