To configure authentication modes for your clusters:
1 Create a user account on each server within your cluster for each administrator whom
you want to be able to administer the servers using the ClusterCATS Explorer.
If your cluster members are NT servers, use the Windows User Manager utility to
create your user accounts.
Note: If only one person will administer all cluster members in the cluster, be sure to
create the same user account (identical user name and password) on each cluster
member. The ClusterCATS Explorer will then prompt you only once for a user name and
password. However, if you create multiple administrator accounts on each server,
ClusterCATS Explorer will display user name and password prompts upon each attempt
to access the servers from the ClusterCATS Explorer.
2 In ClusterCATS Explorer, select a cluster.
3 Select Configure > Administration or Cluster > Properties (both menu selections
display the Properties dialog box); or right-click the cluster and select
Configure > Administration.
The Properties dialog box appears:
4 Select Local User from the Mode drop-down box.
5 Enter a user name and password defined for a valid account.
Note: ClusterCATS requires you to enter a valid user name and password after
selecting the authentication type, so you do not inadvertently lock yourself out of the
cluster.
6 Click OK to enable local user authentication for the selected cluster. Only
administrators who have accounts on each secured server can access and administer
those cluster members using ClusterCATS Explorer.
