Adding a vault slot

You can create a vault slot that is associated with a resource in the Credential Vault and a vault segment. You can also create a shared vault slot on a resource.

1. Select a vault from the Vault drop-down menu. The selection list for resources reflects the resources defined for that vault.
2. Type a Name for the vault slot. The name must be less than 255 characters and cannot include the pipe character |.
3. Select a vault segment from the Vault segment drop-down menu to associate the segment with a resource.
4. Click the Vault slot is shared check box if the resource is associated with information that provides secure access to more than one user. If you check this box, also enter the following fields:
   • Shared userid
   • Shared password
   • Confirm password
   Note: If you add more than one vault slot with the same resource and you check the Vault slot is shared check box on both, the shared userid of the second vault slot overwrites the shared userid in the first vault slot. For example, if the shared userid of the first vault slot is User1 and the shared userid of the second vault slot is User2, then the shared userid for the first vault slot would change to User2.

   • Click the existing radio button and select a vault resource from the drop-down menu
