Redistributable Secret Management Service

Redistributable Secret Management Service (rSMS) can be used to manage user passwords across multiple connected systems. Using the rSMS service it is possible to quickly synchronize the passwords across connected systems. By default, the rSMS service is installed with the Password Manager software.

For more information on creating an rSMS account, see Working with Redistributable Secret Management account.

For more information on resetting passwords in connected systems through embedded systems, see Reset password in connected systems through embedded connectors.

Alternative options

The Redistributable Secret Management Service (rSMS) feature, can be used as an alternative to One Identity Quick Connect Sync Engine.

NOTE: Target platform IP address or the Hostname should not be same server where One Identity rSMS service is installed.

Password Manager permission checker

The Password Manager permission checker is a script used to check the user permissions and privileges. The basic permissions for a user includes the local system permissions and the Active Directory read, write, and delete permissions. Using the permission checker script, you can evaluate the local and Active Directory permissions for the domain account to check if sufficient permissions are available to the Password Manager with all privileges.

IMPORTANT:

  • Active Directory module for Windows PowerShell version 5.0 or later must be installed to run the tool. You can download relevant dependent script modules from the PowerShell Gallery, if not available before executing the permission checks.

  • Windows Server 2016, and Windows Server 2019 operating systems are supported.

Configuring Password Manager permission checker

  1. Login to the server by providing the domain account credentials where the Password Manager is to be installed.

  2. From the installation folder, <Password Manager\Setup\Tools\Permission Checker>, copy the Permission Checker folder and paste it on to the server.

  3. Update the Configuration.xml file with the required domain objects information that needs to be validated from the tool.

    The permissions associated with the user account is displayed. The PermissionChecker.log file available at the same location where the tool is placed and it contains the same permission report displayed in the script console.

IMPORTANT: If the data in the Configration.xml is not specified or incorrect, permis-sion checks are ignored for those sections. After this, the Permission check Warning Summary Report is displayed that is part of the tool which specifies the reasons for the domain account which doesn't have sufficient privileges.

Working with Power BI templates

Microsoft Power BI is an analytics service that is used to visualize large data with business intelligence. You can generate multiple interactive reports and customize dashboards with data insights and plot them on graphs to simplify data visualization.

The predefined Password Manager PowerBI template is available in Password Manager\Setup\Template\PowerBI Template of the installation CD. You can extend the functionality by exporting the predefined template using the PowerBI Desktop software. The template provides the following reports by default:
