Setting Up Monitoring Credentials

Monitoring Credentials allow you to monitor and access various target functionality. You can manage the already existing credentials for various target types using monitoring credentials.

To edit Monitoring Credentials, perform the following steps:

  1. On the Enterprise Manager page, locate the Setup menu located at the top right of the page.
  2. From the Setup menu, select Security, then select Monitoring Credentials.
  3. On the Monitoring Credentials page, select Host and click Manage Monitoring Credentials.
  4. On the Host Monitoring Credentials page, select a row and click Set Credentials to edit the credentials.

By default, a host has the following credential sets defined:

  • Host Credentials For Real-time Configuration Change Monitoring

  • Host SNMP Credentials

  • Host WBEM Credentials

  • Privileged Host Monitoring Credentials

You can add credential sets using the emcli create_credential_set verb with the -monitoring option.
