HP Systems Insight Manager 6.0 Installation and Configuration Guide for HP-UX

task. HP SIM ships with one default discovery task (Discovery). However, you can create a new discovery
task to discover specific systems.
To configure Discovery, select Options→Discovery.
8. Configure the WMI Mapper.
For HP SIM to manage Windows systems, the WMI Mapper as Proxy must be configured and correctly
identified.
You must install the Pegasus WMI Mapper service on a Windows operating system. After installing the
WMI Mapper, configure HP SIM to identify the WMI Mapper system by performing the following steps:
a. Enter the correct user and password for identifying the WMI Mapper node in the Global Protocol
Settings page of the First Time Wizard.
b. Select Options→Protocol Settings→WMI Mapper Proxy. The WMI Mapper Pro xy page appears.
c. Click New. The Add WMI Mapper Proxy page appears.
d. Enter the IP address or the host name in the Host: field where OpenPegasus WMI Mapper is
installed, and enter the port number where the WMI Mapper is installed in the Port number field.
e. After identification is complete, be sure the Properties Page link on the System Page for the WMI
Mapper node appears, and click the link to open the Properties page.
For more information on the Options menu items, see the HP SIM help system.
Configuring HP-UX systems manually
1. Configure SNMP to send traps to the CMS.
a. Add the full host name or IP address of the CMS as a trap-dest in the following file:
trap-dest: hostname or ip_address
b. Stop the SNMP Master agent and all subagents with the command:
/sbin/init.d/SnmpMaster stop
c. Restart the SNMP Master agent and all subagents with the command:
/usr/sbin/snmpd
2. Set trust relationship to Trust by Certificate. For more information, see System Management Homepage
Online Help at http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/agents/
documentation.html.
3. Configure secure shell (SSH) access.
On the CMS, copy the SSH-generated public key from the CMS to the managed system using the
mxagentconfig command:
Use one of the following commands:
• mxagentconfig -a -n <hostname> -u root -f <file_with_root_password>
• mxagentconfig -a -n <hostname> -u root -p <root_password>
NOTE: Using the -p option exposes the password through ps output, so use of the -f option
(with a file only readable by root, and containing only the managed system root password) is
highly recommended when using mxagentconfig -a. If the -p option is used, enclose the
password in single quotes if the password has any special characters, such as and or $. For more
information and options, see the mxagentconfig manpage with man mxagentconfig.
If SSH is not installed on the managed system, enter the following:
swinstall -s /directory/depot T1471AA where directory is the path to the depot file and
depot is the name of the depot file. For example:
swinstall -s /tmp/HPSIM_download.depot T1471AA
