HP Insight Management 7.3 Installation and Configuration Guide

NOTE: If a non-standard SSL port is configured in the Insight Control power management
Options page, it must be updated in the Systems Insight Manager web service properties file
available at HP SIM INSTALLED LOCATION\config\identification\additionalWsDisc.props.
Failure to do so might result in Systems Insight Manager being unable to correctly identify
management processors using the changed SSL port number. For more information, see HP
SIM INSTALLED LOCATION\config\identification\additionalWsDisc_README.txt. You also
need to configure the non-standard SSL port on the management processors.
7. Use Systems Insight Manager's sign-in credentials to configure user name and password pairs
that will be used for iLO and Onboard Administrator access.
If you want to use credentials other than the Systems Insight Manager's sign-in credentials,
you can use power management's Default Management Processor Access Credentials option
to configure user name and password pairs that will be used for iLO and Onboard
Administrator access. The following options are available:
• User Name. Enter the user names used to connect to the iLO/Onboard Administrator for
the managed systems. You can enter up to five user name and password pairs in the
Default 1-5 fields. If there are more than five iLOs available, which require different
credentials, you can overwrite the existing credentials in the Default 1-5 fields to assign
new credentials to the other iLOs.
NOTE: User name can be a short name or a fully-qualified domain name and cannot
be in the formats: userlogin@domain and domain/userlogin.
• Password. Enter the password for the iLO/Onboard Administrator of the managed system
named previously.
• Confirm password. Re-enter the password exactly as you entered it in the Password field.
NOTE: Insight Control power management tries each name and password pair on managed
systems until it accesses the power data.
NOTE: Insight Control power management allows you to configure five credentials to
communicate with iLO/Onboard Administrator. When the credentials are not configured,
power management uses SSH credentials configured in Systems Insight Manager. If this fails,
power management uses the Sign-in credentials of Systems Insight Manager.
8. Default Power Management Data Expiration Settings enable you to configure the time to keep
the historical data.
In the first Remove data older than list, select the number that corresponds with a time span
to be selected in the second list. For example, specifying Remove data older than 6 Month(s)
would delete all data older than six months.
9. Click Apply to save your settings.
Configuring HP Matrix infrastructure orchestration features
You must perform several basic IO configurations, including verifying IO users, and configuring
the HPIO_Administrators group, networks, and server pools. In addition, if you did not install
Operations Orchestration before installing the Insight Management, you must install and configure
it.
For more information about configuring Matrix infrastructure orchestration, see the HP Matrix
infrastructure orchestration User Guide at the following website:
