HP Systems Insight Manager 6.3 Installation and Configuration Guide for Microsoft Windows

Post migration steps
HP recommends running the configure and repair agent settings on the target CMS against the
discovered systems. The options chosen should include to reset the trap, indication destinations as
well as reconfiguring any certificates used by the System Management Homepage, iLO, or OA
for Single sign-on.
Supported configurations include, configuring WBEM and SNMP settings, SSH authentication
mode and trust relationships. You can configure these options using HP Systems Insight Manager
CLI mxQuery and mxTask commands.
HP Systems Insight Manager has a configure and repair agent settings tool (CRA) that allows
configuration of SNMP, WBEM, SSH, and trust relationships on systems. The import tool will create
a collection and task XML file that can be added to the Systems Insight Manager CMS in order to
assist with reconfiguration of the environment. These files are located at [HPSIM]\config\
migration\CRA. The XML file names correspond to the CRA Collection and Task are named as
HPSIMCRAQuery.xml and HPSIMCRATask.xml respectively.
This CRA task is used to fix the target CMS and is not a scheduled task. The CRA task can be
loaded after the migration completes and the Systems Insight Manager server is started. This task
is disabled by default and must be enabled and properly configured with any required credentials,
then run manually once. By default, the settings specified in the CRA Task XML are applicable to
all the discovered managed nodes. A CRA collection is also created for the CRA task to run against.
You can modify the values in the HPSIMCRATask XML files as required. The following table shows
supported settings (CRA task), default values, and allowed values. Alternatively, you can import
this task and edit these options in the task wizard.
