HP Systems Insight Manager 7.2 Command Line Interface Guide

attribute lock flags must be set to false, as shown below. Otherwise, all three attributes must be
set to true.
<sw-attribute name="DefaultProtoSettings">false</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="DefaultAttributeSettings">false</sw-attribute>
<sw-attribute name="DefaultSystemName">false</sw-attribute>
:
Attribute lock flags can also be modified through the Edit System Properties page of the GUI.
Selecting or clearing the Prevent the Discovery and Identification processes from changing these
system attributes check box is the same as setting the attribute lock flags. Selecting the check box
is the same as setting all three flags to false. Clearing the check box is the same as setting all three
flags to true.
The sample XML also includes the monitoring feature attribute within the node element. This feature
enables the you to control the monitoring of a system/node by HP SIM. In normal operation, the
system is continuously monitored (includes Discovery and Identification). System monitoring can
be suspended for a predefined time period, or indefinitely. If the monitoring attribute is not included
in the XML file for a -m -f command, the current monitoring state for the node is left as is.
:
The monitoring feature can also be modified through the Suspend/Resume Monitoring page in the
GUI.
Valid values for the monitoring attribute are as follows.
monitoring="resume" Do not suspend monitoring
monitoring="suspend" Suspend monitoring indefinitely
monitoring="suspend.5m" Suspend monitoring for 5 minutes
monitoring="suspend.15m" Suspend monitoring for 15 minutes
monitoring="suspend.1h" Suspend monitoring for 1 hour
monitoring="suspend.2h" Suspend monitoring for 2 hours
monitoring="suspend.4h" Suspend monitoring for 4 hours
monitoring="suspend.8h" Suspend monitoring for 8 hours
monitoring="suspend.1d" Suspend monitoring for 1 day
monitoring="suspend.2d" Suspend monitoring for 2 days
monitoring="suspend.3d" Suspend monitoring for 3 days
monitoring="suspend.4d" Suspend monitoring for 4 days
monitoring="suspend.5d" Suspend monitoring for 5 days
monitoring="suspend.6d" Suspend monitoring for 6 days
monitoring="suspend.7d" Suspend monitoring for 7 days
All attributes that can be modified and locked are marked with an L.
The attributes that can be modified and locked, but require a predefined value, are marked with
an asterisk.
See the System attributes that can be locked section for the valid values for the DeviceType,
DeviceSubType and OSName attributes. Ensure that the correct category is used for each attribute
(hardware or software).
The three attribute lock flags are marked with an LF marker.
Sample XML file with all system attribute formats and syntax:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="windows-1252"?>
<node-list>
<node name="systemName" host-name="hostName" monitoring="resume">
L* <hw-attribute name="DeviceType">your data here</hw-attribute>
L* <hw-attribute name="DeviceSubType">your data here</hw-attribute>
L <hw-attribute name="Model">your data here</hw-attribute>
L <hw-attribute name="SerialNumber">your data here</hw-attribute>
<hw-attribute name="OverallStatus">10</hw-attribute>
