Run As Profiles

The HPE OneView Library Management Pack includes a Run As Profile that enables non default Run As accounts to be used for discovery and monitoring of HPE OneView appliances. The following Run As Profile is included:

  • HPE OneView Appliance Discovery/Monitoring Account—Used for discovery and monitoring of HPE OneView appliances and the Hewlett Packard Enterprise systems managed by HPE OneView.

By default, the Agent Action Account specified in the Discovery Wizard is used for discovery and monitoring of HPE OneView appliances and the Hewlett Packard Enterprise systems managed by HPE OneView. If the Local System account is not selected and an Other account is specified with insufficient privileges, discovery and monitoring of an HPE OneView appliance and its managed resources fail.

If an Agent Action Account is specified that has insufficient privileges to discover and monitor the target servers, the Run As profiles can be used to specify another account with sufficient privileges. The Run As profiles can be configured with the following steps:

  1. Use the Create Run As Account Wizard to create an account that has sufficient privileges to perform discovery and monitoring of the target HPE OneView appliance.

  2. Select the Run As Profile Wizard for the HPE OneView Discovery and Monitoring account profile and specify the Run As account that was created in step 1.

The Run As account used to discover and monitor the target HPE OneView appliances must have sufficient privileges to access certain resources on the managed server.
