Password and SSH Key

If a service connection of the SSH type is configured for the resource, then when adding an account, it will be possible to generate or manually add not only a password, but also an SSH key. Also, for such accounts it is possible not to set a password, the setup wizard will display an additional item when setting a password - Not set. 

Below we will consider an example of adding *nix account. When adding Windows OS and DBMS accounts, the Not set item will be missing when setting up a password, and there will be no page for generating or manually installing an SSH key.
