Storage Administrator Portal login credentials

During the StoreFront Module for vCenter installation, you specify the login credentials to use for
the Storage Administrator Portal. These credentials are only for logging in to the Storage
Administrator Portal; they do not grant the VMware Administrator role that is required to perform
StoreFront Module for vCenter provisioning operations on HP arrays. To use the StoreFront Module
for vCenter provisioning features, you must configure the VMware Administrator role in a vSphere
session. For instructions, see the HP OneView for VMware vCenter Installation Guide.
