You just click on the HW Icon for the VMware Host and you go directly to the page.
Users will need to accept or install the certificate.

Re: HP Insight Manager Agents Vmware add users to see website
I find using the Certificate Option cumbersome; if the CMS server is rebuilt or renamed, getting a new Cert is nearly impossible.

Re: HP Insight Manager Agents Vmware add users to see website
Thanks very much for the reply, and I hate to sound dumb on your response:
Try setting the security for SMH to "Trust All" or Trust by Name" if you don't want to use the Certificate option.
Where would I make this change, at the moment the group hpsmh has total rights to the folder. I did put the user I created into this group but it did not help.
Thanks I really appreciate the help Gerald.
Thanks
Rich

Re: HP Insight Manager Agents Vmware add users to see website
I'm not aware on any procedures for setting up a new user on the ESX Server and granting that user the correct rights for access to the agent.
It certainly needs something as a normal user doesn't work - my linux skills aren't that hot but you may be able to add it to another group.
But if you use HPSIM as the access point to the agents then the Trust mechanisms are the way to go. HPSIM already has a certificate - it just gets imported into the agent.
It can even be distributed with the agents when they're deployed / updated. Once working it's a very easy mechanism to control access.

Re: HP Insight Manager Agents Vmware add users to see website
Thanks once again for the reply. I did finally call HP support yesterday and they told me the same thing that the agent can not be assigned a different user unless I want to open my system to anyone, which I will not do. So my way around it was to create a new user put them in the root group, which gave them access to the web site, but I configured the user so they are not able to log on to the server under any circumstances. It works fine now so I feel a bit better. I would like HP to change there code so it would be possible to assign a different user access to the website with out having to give them root rights.
Rob thanks again for the support much appreciated. I will be closing out this tread now. You can have the points as well.
regards,
Richard

Re: HP Insight Manager Agents Vmware add users to see website
If you want to give user access to SMH web page you can try this out.
Create a new user and a group. Put the new user in this new group.
Add this particular group in the user group page of SMH Setting -> Security -> User Groups where you can assign the group admin rights, Operator rights or user rights.
This will work from SMH point of view.
From HPSIM point of view if you want to acces SMH or SSO(Single sign on) without root privilege add the same user created now in HPSIM.
Now login to HPSIM using this user. SSO SMH from here will give you only operator rights.
regards
