    Description

      The only place the operation of the globalAuthUsername/globalAuthPassword is documented seems to be in the conf file (eg. monitoring-agent.config):

      #
      # The global authentication credentials to be used by the agent.
      #
      # The user must be created on the "admin" database.
      #
      # If the global username/password is set then all hosts monitored by the
      # agent *must* use the same username password.
      #
      # Example usage:
      #
      # globalAuthUsername=yourAdminUser
      # globalAuthPassword=yourAdminPassword

      Amend the OnPrem and Cloud MMS documentation to explicitly state that these values override everything rather than act as a default.
