Managed System Setup Wizard 6.2 Getting Started Guide

Select managed systems If you have not selected valid target systems, the wizard prompts
you to do so using the Select Target Systems and Verify Target Systems screens in HP
SIM.
Each system must be fully discovered and have valid credentials stored within HP SIM.
• Select and configure management features You configure management features for the
selected systems with the following steps in the managed system setup wizard. The wizard
does not change anything on the managed systems until after you select Run Now during
the Summary step.
— Select Features
Specify the management features you would like to configure for the selected managed
systems.
As you select features the wizard automatically selects any necessary dependencies for
you.
— Choose Options
Set options for any selected management features that have them, overriding any default
(or previous) settings.
— Analyze Systems
The wizard analyzes the target systems to determine what actions, if any, are required
to meet the configurations you specified on the Select Features page and Choose
Options page. The analysis of each system determines whether licenses, agents, or other
configuration tasks are needed to enable the selected management features and options.
All failed analysis must be resolved before you can continue to the next step.
— Select Licenses
Choose from the available product license options, if any, to apply to the managed
systems. These are the licenses needed to enable the selected management features.
For details see “Applying licenses” (page 8).
— Set Credentials
Enter credentials needed to perform configuration steps on managed systems when
HP SIM does not already have the credentials stored (for example, when SSH is not
installed on the managed system).
— Summary
Review the operations that will be performed to enable the selected management features
and initiate the configuration of the managed systems.
When Run Now is selected in this step, the selected management features for each
system are saved, needed licenses are applied, needed agents are installed and other
configuration steps are performed.
— Results
View the HP SIM task results for the configuration steps performed at the conclusion
of the previous step.
Applying licenses
The Insight managed system setup wizard Select Licenses page enables you to select from the
available product license options, if any, and choose which licenses will be applied to the target
systems to enable the selected management features. If no features require additional licenses
you will not need to use this page.
