| Name |
Enter a unique and descriptive name for this
credential. |
| Active |
Enable or disable these credentials for use. |
| User name |
Enter the user name to create in the Credentials table. Avoid leading or
trailing spaces in user names. A warning appears if the platform detects leading
or trailing spaces in the user name. For CIM discovery, the user must have the
admin role. |
| Password |
Enter the password. |
| Credential ID |
Enter the unique key configured for external credentials in the JAR file
uploaded to the MID Server for an external credential system. The
Credential ID field has a limit of 40 characters. This
field is only visible when the External credential store
check box is selected. |
| Credential alias |
Allow workflow creators to assign individual credentials to any activity in
an Orchestration workflow or assign different credentials to each occurrence of
the same activity type in an Orchestration workflow. To use the credential for
discovering CIs not belonging to this CI type using Service Mapping and
Discovery patterns, enter the table name for the CI type to which the CI
belongs, for example cmdb_ci_apache_web_server. For more information, see Change credentials to
non-default. |
| External credential store |
Select this check box to use an external credential storage system. When you
select this option the User name and
Password fields are replaced with the
Credential ID field. External credential
storage is only available when
the External Credential Storage plugin in activated.
Note: Currently, the only supported external storage system is CyberArk.
|
| Applies to |
Select whether to apply these credentials to All MID
servers in your network, or to one or more Specific MID
servers. Specify the MID Servers that
should use these credentials in the MID servers field.
|
| MID servers |
Select one or more MID Servers from the list of available MID Servers. The
credentials configured in this record are available to the MID Servers in this
list. This field is available only when you select Specific MID
servers from the Applies to field. |
| Order |
Order (sequence) in which Discovery tries this
credential as it attempts to log on to devices. The smaller the number, the higher in the
list this credential appears. Establish credential order when using large numbers of
credentials or when security locks out users after three failed login attempts. If all the
credentials have the same order number (or none), the instance tries the credentials in a
random order.
