Deploying HP SIM 6.x on MSCS clusters on Windows 2008 with SQL Server 2008 SP1 White Paper

69
Note:
You must always specify the port 280 in the URL of your Web browser to
connect to the HP SIM 6.x service. To learn more about connecting to HP
SIM 6.x, refer to the
HP Systems Insight Manager 6.x Technical Reference
Guide
.
Note:
The
HP SIM
6.x
icon on the
Windows desktop of each system was created
by the installation of HP SIM
6.x
as a handy shortcut for a regular
standalone server only. This icon is no longer applicable at this point
because the HP SIM
6.x
is clustered. The icon should be deleted from the
desktop of each system to avoid future confusion.
5.
A security alert displays. Click
OK
. The Login window appears.
6.
Be sure to log in with the appropriate username, password, and domain for your cluster.
Important:
Clustering allows any system in the clust
er to own the virtual group
containing the HP SIM 6.x resources. With the creation of a virtual network
name and IP address specific to the HP SIM 6.x service, clients can connect
to the service without knowing which system currently owns the virtual
group
. When browsing to the virtual name for HP SIM 6.x rather than the
name of the server that owns the virtual group, a security certificate for HP
SIM 6.x is sent to your browser. If your browser is configured to warn
about invalid site certificates, a secur
ity alert displays when connecting to
the HP SIM 6.x virtual server (which was created earlier in this paper). This
alert indicates that the name you have connected to does not match the
name on the certificate. This is because the name on the certificate
is the
name of the secondary system and not that of the virtual server. To learn
more about the browser security alert, refer to the
HP Systems Insight
Manager 6.x Technical Reference Guide
located on the HP Management
CD (version 7.1 or greater).
