Managing identities

Some features in IBM Spectrum Protect Plus require credentials to access your resources. For example, IBM Spectrum Protect Plus connects to Oracle servers as the local operating system user that is specified during registration to complete tasks like cataloging, data protection, and data restore.

User names and passwords for your resources can be added and edited through the Identity pane. Then when utilizing a feature in IBM Spectrum Protect Plus that requires credentials to access a resource, select Use existing user, and select an identity from the drop-down menu.
