Safeguard for Privileged Passwords cannot manage any accounts associated with an asset set to None. All assets must have a service account in order to check and change the passwords for the accounts associated with it.
After you add an asset you can verify that Safeguard for Privileged Passwords can log into it using the Check Connection option.
|
Note: When you run Test Connection from the asset's Connection tab (such as when you add the asset initially), you must enter the service account credentials. Once you add the asset to Safeguard for Privileged Passwords it saves these credentials. The Check Asset option does not require that you enter the service account credentials because it uses the saved credentials to verify that it can log into that asset. |
To check an asset's connectivity
Safeguard for Privileged Passwords displays a Toolbox task pane that shows the results.
Use the Assets view to assign an asset to a partition. An asset can only be in one partition at a time. When you add an asset to a partition, all accounts associated with that asset are automatically added to that partition, as well.
You cannot remove an asset from a partition. However, you can add the asset to another partition either from the scope of the other partition or from an asset's General properties.
