ivating the HP cluster MIB agents
The HP Cluster MIB Agents provide information about your cluster through SNMP. It is a prerequisite
for the HP SIM 5.x that these MIB agents be installed on your cluster to discover and identify itself as
a cluster, as wel
l as recognizing its systems as such. If your cluster was setup following the
HP Systems
Insight Manager 5.x Installation and Configuration
guides that ship with the cluster itself, the HP
Management Agents and all the MIBs (including the HP Cluster MIB Ag
ents) should already be
installed on each system.
