Chapter 2 - Initial Configuration
Log Into the BlackPearl User Interface
2.
If necessary, resolve the security certificate warning for the BlackPearl user interface.
The BlackPearl system ships with non-signed SSL certificates for both the data and
management ports on the system. When using the shipped certificates, you must pass a
security check every time you attempt to access the management port to view the
BlackPearl user interface, or when you attempt to transfer data using the data port.
Notes:
• The absence of the certificate does not affect functionality.
• If desired, you can install signed, trusted SSL certificates for your data and
management ports so that you no longer need to pass the security check when
accessing these ports. See
Configure Certificates on page 210
3.
Enter the primary administrator username and password.
The default username is
Administrator
. The default password is
spectra
. The
fields are case sensitive.
Notes:
• Spectra Logic recommends that you change the default password for the
primary administrator (see
).
• If you are upgrading from a previous version of BlackPearl software, the
existing administrator account “
spectra
” is retained and the “
Administrator”
account is automatically created without any permissions.
• If you are upgrading from a previous BlackPearl software version to software
version 4.0 or later, the BlackPearl system retains any accounts created before
the upgrade.
