can batchpatch store encrypted credentials for use on multiple systems? I would love to be able to highlight a bunch of systems and then open a credentials locker and select from a set of pre-stored creds to apply to the hosts. can we do that now somehow? I know i can save a pre-made grid with creds, but what if someone hands me a list and needs multiple sets of creds applied to certain groups?

There is not currently a credentials locker. We’ll consider this.

However, when you enter a username/password that needs to be applied to a group of hosts, you can apply that logon account’s credentials to numerous hosts in the grid at the same time by just selecting multiple rows in the grid before you click “OK” in the BP Credentials form. You don’t have to individually select a credential for each row. You can just do many rows at the same time, so long as all of the selected rows at any given time use the same credential.

yep, i use that a whole bunch already, thanks for the feedback.
