Technical design Operating and monitoring CentricStor
5.1.4 Operating modes
GXCC recognizes the following three user privilege levels:
Service mode Access to all CentricStor functions available via GXCC. Users
must use the “diag” password to identify themselves to the
CentricStor ISP with which they are connected.
User mode Access to the functions required for normal operation.
Examples of this are the addition of new logical volumes and the
inclusion of or changes to logical and physical volume groups.
Users identify themselves with the ISP “xtccuser” password.
Observe mode Monitoring function. Access to the global status and history. By
default no password is required. On CentricStor, access control
can optionally be configured for this mode. Users then legitimate
themselves with the ISP’s “xtccobsv” password.
The operating mode is set as a start parameter when GXCC is called. The password will be
queried once the connection has been established.
If the wrong password is entered, an error message is output and the query is repeated.
After a third wrong entry for Service or User mode the GXCC is started in Observe mode
provided no access control exists for this. If access control is specified for Observe mode,
three wrong password entries are also possible here, after which the program aborts.
This manual describes User mode and Observe mode. Service mode is reserved
for service personnel.
