Activating the HP cluster MIB agents
The HP Cluster MIB Agents provide information about your cluster through SNMP. It is a prerequis
ite
for the HP SIM 6.x that these MIB agents be installed on your cluster to discover and identify itself as
a cluster, as well as recognizing its systems as such. If your cluster was set
up following the HP
Systems Insight Manager 6.x Installation and Con
figuration guides that ship with the cluster,
then
the
HP Management Agents and all the MIBs (including the HP Cluster MIB Agents)
are
installed on each
system.
