Storage Management Appliance Software User Guide

Domain Membership

You can enhance the built-in security features of the Storage Management
Appliance software by adding the SMA to a domain. Joining a domain improves
security because the user and group accounts are subject to the security policies
set by the domain administrator and enforced by the Windows network.

The Storage Management Appliance can be a member of only one domain at any
given time. Use the Domain Membership page (

Figure 30

) to add your Storage

Management Appliance to a specified domain.

Figure 30: Domain Membership page

The system displays the warning text shown in

Figure 30

if you are not using a

secure connection—see “

Security Features

” on page 21 for detailed information.

You can make the manual entries described in the warning or use the Secure Site
link to establish a secure connection.

You must enter the name and password for a person in the Domain Administrator
group for the domain that the Storage Management Appliance is joining. For
example, if you are changing domain membership, enter the name and password
for a person in the Domain Administrator group for the destination domain.

For further instructions on domain membership, see the Storage Management
Appliance online help.
