Activating 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 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 setup following the
HP Systems
Insight Manager 6.x Installation and Configuration
guide
s that ship with the cluster itself, the HP
Management Agents and all the MIBs (including the HP Cluster MIB Agents) should already be
installed on each system.
