Server Grouping
Servers under monitoring can be grouped according to user's demands.
Server viewing based on group
Servers are organized in different groups. User can do the grouping
according to the demands.
Security
Actions taken on the server are authenticated based on the user privilege.
User account management
Add, modify and delete user. Assign privilege to user on the specific server.
3.5 Pre-setup and Installation
3.5.1 Pre-setup
Authentication and Privilege
TSO provides security access with MANAGER Authentication, Agent
Authentication and SMDC Authentication. User needs to prepare the
privilege information (user-name and password) for each system in order to
access target system.
No password is prohibited
Case sensitive under Linux and Out-of-Band
Internal-IP and External-IP
TSO requires Internal-IP and External-IP setup by user during the TSO installation.
User needs to make sure the IP matching with Network Interface Controllers (NIC).
Configuration I
If CONSOLE is often being used outside of the subnet in which all/some
machines are equipped with SMDC, the machine that runs MANAGER would
have 2 NIC's. MANAGER will likely be installed at the gateway or proxy
machine in the subnet.
Configure Internal IP to be a valid IP under this subnet. This subnet is
typically known as a Local Area Network (LAN). The IP would look
like this for example: 192.168.1.1, 192.168.1.254
Configure External IP to be a valid IP under the main network. This
main network is typically known as a Wide Area Network (WAN). This
IP would be a 'true' IP, meaning it is the one and only one among all
the machines in the world. The IP would look like this for example:
206.13.28.12, 216.239.53.99
Configuration II
If CONSOLE is being used inside the same subnet, the machine that runs
Manager may have only 1 NIC. MANAGER can be located on any machine
in the network. Notice that MANAGER and CONSOLE need not be installed
on the same machine even though they can/may be install on the same
machine.
