Adding management servers in the Global Reports perspective

Last published : Jul 06, 2026
To allow connections on a management server
  1. Navigate to the database configuration directory on the management server that you want to add to the Global Reports perspective.
    On Windows systemDrive:\ProgramData\Symantec\VRTSsfmcs\db\data
    Replace systemDrive with the appropriate value.
    On UNIX /var/opt/VRTSsfmcs/db/data
  2. Open the pg_hba.conf file and add the host SFMdb3 habguest *mainCMS_FQDN* password line for the main InfoScale Operations Manager CMS:
\# TYPE  DATABASE        USER    ADDRESS          METHOD

\# "local" is for Unix domain socket connections only
local   all             all                      trust
\# IPv4 local connections:
host    all             all     127.0.0.1/32     trust
host SFMdb3 habguest mainCMS_FQDN password
\# IPv6 local connections:
host    all             all     ::1/128          trust
\# Allow replication connections from localhost, by
\# a user with the replication privilege.
local   replication     all                      trust
host    replication     all     127.0.0.1/32     trust
host    replication     all     ::1/128          trust
Note: In thehost SFMdb3 habguest mainCMS_FQDN passwordline: - Single spaces must be used as separators, instead of tab characters. - Thepasswordstring is a literal string, not a variable to be replaced with a user password. - Use management server FQDN instead ofmainCMS_FQDN
  1. Open the postgresql.conf file and add or update the line for ports as follows:
listen_addresses = '*'
  1. Restart the database.
    On Windows systemDrive:\Program Files\VERITAS\VRTSsfmcs\bin\vomsc --restart db
    Replace systemDrive with the appropriate value.
    On UNIX /opt/VRTSsfmcs/bin/vomsc --restart db
To work with management servers in the Global Reports perspective

  2. In the Global Reports perspective, you can use the Management server details tab to perform the following operations:
    • Click Add Management Server above the tab title. On the Add management server dialog, enter the name or the IP address of the management server and its database password.
To identify the habguest password of a management server, run the following command on that management server:
On Windows systemDrive:\Program Files\Veritas\VRTSsfmh\bin\xdbadm.exe -g -u habguest -c systemDrive:\ProgramData\Symantec\VRTSsfmcs\conf
Replace systemDrive with the appropriate value.
On UNIX /opt/VRTSsfmh/bin/xdbadm -g -u habguest -c /var/opt/VRTSsfmcs/conf
A new row for the corresponding management server then appears on the tab.
Note: Ensure that you do not add multiple entries for the same management server. Otherwise, reports that retrieve data from such a management server will contain duplicate records.
  • To update the database password of a management server, click Edit management server details from the context menu of the corresponding row. Use the appropriate fields on the Edit management server details dialog.
  • To remove a management server from this perspective, click Delete management server from the context menu of the corresponding row. Provide your confirmation on the dialog box that appears. After you delete a management server, the corresponding row no longer appears on the tab.
