Good morning, good afternoon and good evening. My name is Dustin. I am a subject matter expert
in the Systems Management Space. Today I will be going over AD integration with OpenManage
Enterprise. So first we will need to go to Active Directory users and computers on the,
on the domain, and we'll need to add a group. So let's create a new group,
and we want this to be a security global group, we'll call it omeadmin.
Let's go ahead and create one more group
Let's call this omeuser.
All right, and then just for fun let's add someone to this group.
All right, so i'm added to that group now, we're going to want to go to OME
and configure Active Directory, so we will go to 'Application Settings',
'Users and Directory Services' choose add, AD will be automatically there,
and then directory name we're going to call it [enters name]
And then we're going to use DNS
and we're going to do let's see dc=sstsysman,dc=local
Okay, that's how that should look. While we have this here I do want to say a good
troubleshooting step if you're ever having issues is to choose the manual and just do
the IP address of the domain control you're trying to reach. That way you
rule out any DNS issues. So from here we have our server. Ports 3269 is default, and 636 could also
be used if your domain controller was not a global catalog. If you needed to upload
a certificate you could do that here, it would be from the root CA and you can just click this
button and select file. So i'm going to not use certificate for this one let's test connection.
All right, the test connection was successful so now we want to hit 'Finish'.
Now we have to import those groups we created earlier so we'll go back to
'Users' and we'll import directory group so from here we're going to choose our source.
All right, now we're going to search for group names we call it omeadmin admin if i
remember. There's our omeadmin, So let's go ahead and move that over,
and then we want to assign it privileges. So from here we have three privileges we
can assign administrator, device manager, and viewer. So these are the administrators, so i'm
going to do administrator assign and remember we also had omeuser so we can import that as well,
and then we can assign it viewer because they're just a user they're not an admin.
And we could do a third one for device manager if we want to but for the sake of this,
uh this video we'll just do this. So let's import these. They were imported successfully,
all right. So from here we should be able to log out and log back in using directory services.
And we're in. So that's it. I hope you enjoyed my video on AD integration with OME.
Thanks and have a great day.
