nnm.properties — file containing the username and password for command line tools
If you frequently run NNMi command line tools, HP recommends you create an
nnm.properties file. This file contains a username and password that you can use
in place of the -u and -p command line options.
Using the nnm.properties file, you can run many commands without entering your
password. The nnm.properties file contains an encrypted version of the password and
should be created by running the
nnmsetcmduserpw.ovpl script.
Never manually edit the nnm.properties file.
The nnmsetcmduserpw.ovpl script creates or edits a file placed in an
.nnm subdirectory under your home directory at the following locations:
Windows: drive:\Documents and
Settings\username\.nnm\
UNIX: ~/.nnm/
The contents of this file must be defined as follows:
nnm.usernameThe account user name.
nnm.passwordThe account encrypted password.
Most command line tools require an administrative user with an
admin role assigned to the tool.
