VNX for file CLI authentication

For VNX for file CLI, you need to connect by remote terminal using SSH into the Control Station and log in to the Control station using either a local or global account, or an account with LDAP authentication using SSH. There are two default local accounts on the Control Station (discussed in Default accounts) or you can create a new local account for this purpose.

Logging in to the system using the Control Station CLI

When a domain-mapped user logs in to the Control Station CLI, the domain name provided must match the domain name or fully qualified domain name known to VNX OE for File.

The supported domain-mapped user login formats for LDAP domain-mapped users are:

  • <domain name>\<user> (for example, mycompany\anne)
  • <user>@<domain name> (for example, anne@mycompany)

The domain name can be specified as the fully qualified domain name. For example:

  • <fully qualified domain name>\<user> (for example, mycompany.com\anne)
  • <user>@<fully qualified domain name> (for example, anne@mycompany.com)
NOTE:Users can only log in under a single domain. Consequently, mycompany and mycompany.com are treated as the same domain.

The supported domain-mapped user login formats for storage domain-mapped users are:

  • storageDomain\<user> (for example, storageDomain\anne)
  • <user>@storageDomain (for example, anne@storageDomain)
NOTE:storageDomain is a case-sensitive keyword, not a variable, and you must type it exactly as shown.
