Configuring Orchestrator credentials through clientConnect.conf file

You need to specify the Orchestrator credentials in the clientConnect.conf file located in the Server Manager installation directory.
You can also configure the Orchestrator credentials through GUI, as mentioned in Configure Orchestrator credentials through GUI
Before you configure Data Collection Framework or Kafka Access Settings, verify that you configure:
  1. TLS for Kafka Edge. For more information, see Enable TLS for Edge Kafka.
  2. To fetch the IP address and Port numbers for DCC and Kafka, refer Identify Data Collection.
  1. At
    BASEDIR/smarts/bin
    , type the following command:
    sm_edit ../conf/clientConnect.conf
  2. Enter the following line for each orchestrator instance:
    orchestrator:<orchestrator_IP_Address>:<orchestrator_Username>:<orchestrator_Password>:<Protocol>:<orchestrator_Port>:<data_center_name>
    You must add the line for the orchestrator instance above:
    "::admin:<E-1.0>94689C5A7C826FD58DDE9F62284A68191EC739743EA25E5E1F76FE49 3337D558"
    in the
    clientConnect.conf
    file.
    For example:
    orchestrator:xx.xx.xx.xx:admin:admin:http:80:_core
  3. Save
    and close the file.
  4. Restart the Server Manager.
