How to access InfiniMetrics

• Viewing the metrics of an InfiniBox system requires credentials of a user that can access the InfiniBox or InfiniGuard system.
• Starting from release v5.6.1, credentials for READ_ONLY permissions must be provided when adding a system to InfiniMetrics or when changing a system's connection settings.
  Systems added prior to this release can continue being monitored.

Create users in InfiniBox

For each system in InfiniMetrics:

• One InfiniBox READ_ONLY user is used by InfiniMetrics for ongoing monitoring the InfiniBox or InfiniGuard system.
• The same, or another, InfiniBox READ_ONLY user may be used to view the information in InfiniMetrics for that system.

To create a user in InfiniBox:

1. Log in to InfiniBox with a user that has permissions to add users.
2. Select the Settings view, and open the Users tab.
3. Create a local user with a READ_ONLY user role.

For more information, see the Authentication and Security and LDAP Integration chapters on the InfiniBox user documentation.

Add InfiniBox users to InfiniMetrics

When you add a system to InfiniMetrics, you are prompted to enter the credentials of the InfiniBox READ_ONLY user that will monitor the system.

When you select a system in the InfiniMetrics main screen:

• If a user is already logged in to that system in InfiniMetrics, the detailed monitors are displayed.
• If no user is logged in, you are prompted to enter the credentials of an InfiniBox READ_ONLY user.
  
  You can opt to:
  • Automatically reuse the credentials for this system for the next two weeks
  • Use the same credentials for viewing the metrics of all systems in InfiniMetrics
