2.4 User Authentication
As stated earlier, 3PAR Management Plug-In and Recovery Manager for VMware vSphere is
deployed as a VI Client plug-in. You must first log into the vCenter Server before accessing
3PAR Management Plug-In and Recovery Manager for VMware vSphere’s features. 3PAR
Management Plug-In and Recovery Manager for VMware vSphere does not ask for a user
name or password. Instead, it uses a logged-in user's credentials to access VMware inventory.
This credential sharing is the VMware recommended way for transparent plug-in
authentication.
2.4.1 VMware vCenter Server Login for 3PAR Virtual Volume and Virtual
Copy Management
3PAR Management Plug-In and Recovery Manager for VMware vSphere creates a new vCenter
Server role named 3PAR Recovery Manager Administrator upon plug-in registration. The
following restrictions apply for the 3PAR Recovery Manager Administrator role:
■
All non-administrator users must be in this role.
■
If an administrator logs in as Administrator or DOMAIN\Administrator, the permission check
is skipped.
