• User name and password - You can change the user name and password the management
server uses to access a device. Whenever a user name and/or password has changed on a
device the management server monitors, the management server must be made aware of the
change. For example, assume the password for a host was changed. You would need to
updated the management server database with the new password. See ” Modifying a Single IP
Address Entry for Discovery ” on page 26.
• Discovery group - All elements are initially placed in the Default discovery group. You can then
move elements from the Default discovery group to other discovery groups.You can use
discovery groups to break up getting the topology or Get Details. For example, you could
specify that the management server gets the topology or Get Details for only the elements in
Discovery Group 1, thus, saving you time. This feature is sometimes referred to as segmented
replication because you can specify getting the topology or Get Details for a segment of the
discovered elements.
Keep in mind the following:
• (Discovery from HP SE only) You can use this window to change the user name and password
stored in the management server's database. It does not change the device's user name and
password.
• Discovery groups cannot be renamed or created. You must use the existing discovery groups.
• You can also use the Move to Discovery Group button to move multiple elements to another
discovery group. See ” Moving Elements to Another Discovery Group ” on page 88 for more
information.
