Importing configuration settings

To restore a Password Manager instance or to join an instance to a realm, you need to import the configuration settings to such an instance.

To import configuration settings

  1. To connect to the Administration Site, enter the Administration Site URL in the address bar of your Web browser. By default, the URL is http://<ComputerName>/PMAdmin/.

    NOTE: When prompted to log in, provide your domain user name in a domainname\username format.

  2. On the menu bar, click General Settings, then click the Import/Export tab and select the Import configuration settings option.

  3. Click Upload to select the configuration file that you exported earlier.

  4. Enter the password and click Import.

Outgoing mail servers

You can configure one or more outgoing mail servers to send email notifications. If there are several servers, Password Manager will first attempt to use the top one in the list.

To add outgoing mail servers (SMTP)

  1. Connect to the Administration Site by typing the Administration Site URL in the address bar of your web browser. By default, the URL is http://<ComputerName>/PMAdmin/.

    NOTE: When prompted to log in, provide your domain user name in a domainname\username format.

  2. On the menu bar, click General Settings > SMTP Servers, then click Add SMTP server.

  3. In the Add SMTP Server dialog, configure the following options and click Save:

    Table 10: SMTP server details

    Option

    Description

    Server name

    Type the SMTP server name.

    If the SMTP server uses the port which is different from the default SMTP port 25, you may specify the port using the following format:

    <server name>:<port number>

    where <server name> is the server name and <port number> is the port number used for SMTP communication.

    Sender email address

    Type the sender's email address.

    This server requires authentication

    Select if the SMTP server requires authentication.

    User name

    Type the user name under which Password Manager will access the SMTP server.

    Password

    Type the password for this account.

    Confirm password

    Re-type the password.

    The server requires an encrypted connection (SSL)

    Select if the SMTP server requires an encrypted connection (SSL).

  4. Follow steps 2-3 to add any additional SMTP servers.

    NOTE: You can use the Test settings button to validate the SMTP server that you have configured. An email will be sent to the specified email address if the provided details are valid. If any of the details are invalid, a error message is displayed. You can configure the subject text of the email by configuring the value of Resource Id, ”Admin.Scenario.Action.TestSMTP.Settings.TestEmail.Subject” in the Admin.xml file.

  5. Use the Move Up and Move Down buttons to change the order of the SMTP servers in the list.

    The order of the servers in the list specifies how Password Manager uses the servers to send notification mail messages. Password Manager will first attempt to use the servers at the top of the list.

To remove a server from the list of outgoing SMTP mail servers

  1. Connect to the Administration Site by typing the Administration Site URL in the address bar of your Web browser. By default, the URL is http://<ComputerName>/PMAdmin/.

    NOTE: When prompted to log in, provide your domain user name in a domainname\username format.

  2. On the SMTP Servers page, select the SMTP server you want to remove and click Remove.

  3. On the menu bar, click General Settings, then click the SMTP Servers tab.

  2. Configure the following options as required:

    Table 11: Diagnostic logging options

    Type a path to the file to store the diagnostic information.

    Set log level

    The following log levels are available:

    • Verbose logging: Select this option to log the most extended diagnostic information.
