Use Quick Credentials

Create and assign credentials using Quick Credentials when editing a template or application monitor.

  1. If the credential you want to assign does not exist, create it by following these instructions:
    1. Select <New Credential> in the Choose Credential field.
    2. Type a name for the new credential in the Credential Name field.
    3. Type the user name for the credential in the User Name field.
    4. Type the password in the Password field, and type it again in the Confirm Password field.
  2. To assign an existing credential, select the credential from the Choose Credential field.
  3. Click Set Component Credentials to set this credential as the credential for all the components in the Application Monitor or template.

    The ability to Inherit Windows credentials from a node is available in the drop down list. Anywhere you have the option to specify credentials for an application monitor template or component monitor, you can use existing WMI credentials to manage the host.
