Important notes regarding OpsCenter upgrade

  • During OpsCenter upgrade, NT users (on Windows) and PWD, NIS, or NIS+ users (on UNIX) from the previous OpsCenter version are transferred to LDAP users. You cannot logon to OpsCenter using the LDAP user credentials until you configure LDAP.

    See Adding AD / LDAP domain in OpsCenter.

  • OpsCenter upgrade does not retain the LDAP configuration that you had done in an older version. You need to reconfigure LDAP after you upgrade to OpsCenter.

    See Adding AD / LDAP domain in OpsCenter.

  • After OpsCenter upgrade, PWD, NIS, or NIS+ users (on UNIX) cannot be accessed from OpsCenter server that is installed on Windows. This is because in OpsCenter, remote AT is not supported. It also does not support multibroker.
