API authorization Error: Check username and password

dphelps

Hello,

Trying to get lpar2rrd up and running. When I run the test perl script:

perl /home/lpar2rrd/lpar2rrd/bin/conntest.pl 1xx.xx.xxx.xxx 12443

I get the message back of "on port "12443" is ok".

When when I try to use the GUI and access the HMC at the  "IBM Power Systems configuration" I keep on running into this error:

API authorization (lpar2rrd): User lpar2rrd authorization failed on https://1xx.xx.xxx.xxx:12443.
Check username and password
Check if 172.29.169.239 version is at least HMC v8 otherwise use HMC CLI (SSH)

The funny thing is I can go onto the lpar2rrd box (RHEL) become the user lpar2rrd and ssh into the HMC with the new username and password I set up.

Am I missing something?

My HMC version is v9

Pavel

can you log in to the HMC UI with lpar2rd user credentials?
