Directory Test Settings tab
The Directory Test Settings tab provides Onboard Administrator administrators with a tool to be
sure that the configuration information provided allows the directory user access to the Onboard
Administrator and the resources in the enclosure. The Test Settings tab applies only to the current
settings. Therefore, after making changes, you must click the
Apply
button, and then select the
Test
Settings
tab.
The Test Settings tab is used to run and report the tests to the administrator. When the page initially
appears, it contains a list of tests with the current status of Not Run. The tests are run in the order
that they appear in the table when you click the Test Settings button. The tests end when an error
occurs. You must enter a user name and password to perform the User Authentication and User
Authorization tests.
The following tests are performed in the order listed.
Overall Test Status
The Overall Test Status is an aggregation of all the tests run. The value is either Not Run, Passed,
or Failed. If any of the individual tests fail, the status is Failed.
Ping Directory Server
A simple ping test is performed after it is verified that there is a valid IP address or domain name
for the directory server. The ping test sends a maximum of four ping packets to the directory server
and reports success or failure.
A successful test reports that Onboard Administrator can establish a network path to the directory
server.
A failed test reports that Onboard Administrator cannot establish a network path to the directory
server. The administrator must verify the host name or IP address.
Directory Server IP Address
If the LDAP configuration specifies an IP address instead of a DNS, then this test verifies that the
IP address is a valid IPv4 address. Otherwise the test reports Not Run for a status.
A successful test reports that the IP address stored for the directory server is a valid IPv4 address.
A failed test reports that the IP address stored for the directory server is not a valid IPv4 address.
The administrator must verify the IP address entered and correct the IP address.
Directory Server DNS Name
The DNS lookup test determines if Onboard Administrator can resolve the domain name of the
LDAP server. If the LDAP server configuration uses IP addresses instead of a DNS name, then this
test reports Not Run.
