Adding Accounts of Managed Host or Application Resources into CBH
A host or application resource may have multiple accounts configured. Each account of a managed host or application resource is considered as a managed resource account. You do not need to enter the username or password when you log in to a managed host using its managed resource accounts.
If no account is added for a host or application resource in the CBH system, the Empty account is generated by default. In this situation, when you log in to the host or application resource through CBH, a username and password is required.
