Starting the Configuration Manager

When you open the Configuration Manager, your first step is to connect to a server. Connecting to a server gives you access to its associated clusters, nodes, and discoveries. You need to know the name of the server, and the port number. The server name is the name of the computer where the server is installed. The port number was configured during the server installation.


	NOTE: If UAC is enabled, you must have elevated permissions to open the Configuration Manager.


	NOTE: To start the Configuration Manager, you must be a discovery administrator. For more information, see “Installing and Configuring the Configuration Manager and Role Based Security in Enterprise Reporter” in the Installation and Deployment Guide.

If this is your first time opening the Configuration Manager, you need to provide a license. For more information, see “Licensing Enterprise Reporter” in the Installation and Deployment Guide.

To connect to a server

1

Click the Start menu and select Quest | Configuration Manager.

2

Type the name of the server.

Click Browse, and locate the computer where the server is installed.

Once you have connected to a server, the server name is stored in the list for future use.

3

If necessary, type in the port number.

4

Click Log In.

Overview of Enterprise Reporter Communications and Credentials Required

There are many communication channels in Enterprise Reporter, involving different sets of credentials. This allows for controlled access to your environment, but you must understand where each set of credentials are used, and what permissions they need. See the Enterprise Reporter Release Notes for details.

Logged-In User Credentials

The following table shows the use of the logged-in user credentials and how to configure your environment to ensure successful data collection:

Table 2. Logged-In User Credentials in Configuration Manager
From	To	Permission Details	Configuration
Configuration Manager	Enterprise Reporter Server	Must be a member of the Reporter_Discovery_Admins group in order to log in to the console. Configuration Manager will send configuration and set up requests to the server.	Configuration is dependent on your deployment’s security group setup. See the Information page to determine the type of security in place. For more information, see “Configuring the Database and Security Groups” in the Installation and Deployment Guide.
Configuration Manager	Targets	Must be able to enumerate the targets during scope selection, unless alternate credentials are provided for the discovery. All domains with which the credentials have a forest or domain level trust will be enumerated.	On each target, grant the user read access.
