Exporting the NNMi Security and Multi-Tenancy Configuration

The following table describes the configuration areas (available with nnmconfigexport.ovpl -c) for exporting the NNMi security and multi-tenancy configuration. These export areas are beneficial for maintaining the configuration across multiple NNMi management servers, especially in a Global Network Management environment.

NNMiSecurity and Multi-Tenancy Configuration Export Areas

Configuration Area

Description

account

Exports user accounts, user groups, and user account-to-user group mappings.

Useful for sharing user definitions across multiple NNMi databases.

security

Exports tenants and security groups.

Useful for sharing security definitions across multiple NNMi databases.

Importing this information creates new objects and updates existing objects but does not delete objects not included in the current export. Therefore, this option is safe to use with an NNMi database containing locally-defined objects.

securitymappings

Exports user group-to-security group mappings.

For a complete export of the security and multi-tenancy configuration, perform a concurrent export of the account, security, and securitymappings configuration areas.
