Step 3: Add Resources to the CBH System
Scenarios
A bastion host allows you to centrally manage cloud resources as well as their accounts and permissions. Before you start, ensure resources are added to the CBH system for centralized O&M management.
A host or application resource may have multiple accounts for login. CBH allows you to log in to managed resources through managed accounts without having to repeatedly enter the usernames and passwords.
The default account for each managed resource is Empty. If you use the Empty account, enter the account username and password for accessing the host resource.
Prerequisites
- The network between the hosts to be added and the CBH is normal.
- Before adding application resources, you need to add application servers to the CBH system. For details, see Adding an Application Resource to CBH or Importing Application Resources from an Excel File.
Procedure
Resource Type |
How to Add |
Description |
---|---|---|
Host resources |
Add host resources one by one. After you add the basic information of the host resource, add accounts to the host resource. If no account is added, account Empty is generated for the host resource by default. |
|
Configure basic information as well as accounts of a host based on the Excel template. If an account is configured for a host resource, the CBH system will no longer generate the Empty account for the host resource. |
||
Select a cloud platform that can communicate with the CBH system and import the basic information and account information of the hosts on the cloud platform into the CBH system. All accounts of the hosts in the cloud platform will be imported into the CBH system. The CBH system will no longer generate the Empty account. |
||
The CBH system automatically discovers hosts that can communicate with the CBH system through IP addresses or IP address ranges. In this method, only basic information of discovered hosts is added to the CBH system. You are required to add the accounts to them manually. |
||
Application resources |
Add application resources one by one. After you add the basic information of the application resource, add an account to the application resource. If no account is added, Account Empty is generated for the application resource by default. |
|
Configure basic information as well as accounts of application resources using the Excel template. If an account is configured for an application resource, the CBH system will no longer generate the Empty account for the application resource. |
