Configuration prerequisites (Optional)

Note: Auditing can be enabled without configuring the below settings, by leaving the username and password fields blank and selecting the scope as Local User while Adding Huawei OceanStor systems in ADAudit Plus.

If you want to use a dedicated ADAudit Plus Huawei user account, configure the below settings prior to adding your OceanStor Dorado All-Flash Storage and OceanStor Hybrid Flash Storage systems in ADAudit Plus.

1. Create a dedicated ADAudit Plus Huawei user account and provide it with the required minimum privileges according to the steps in this section.
2. Ensure that the OceanStor storage device's name resolves to an IP that serves as both the management and service IP. However, if you already have an IP that serves only as the service IP, you can still proceed with it.
3. Ensure that a logical IP—that is dedicated to a vStore—is set up for accessing the REST API. If you have not created a management IP, you can skip this step and proceed.
