HP Systems Insight Manager 7.0 Installation and Configuration Guide for Microsoft Windows

3. Change the setting from Guest Only to Classic.

If Guest Only is the preferred policy setting, perform the preceding steps, sign in

to Systems Insight Manager, and then add domain accounts (not local accounts)

or the local Guest account as accounts to Systems Insight Manager. Restore the

local policy setting back to Guest when done.

12.12.2.3 Single Sign On fails on cluster systems.

Single Sign On does not work on a virtual cluster system. It works on the physical

systems that comprise the cluster.

12.12.2.4 By using a proxy server, you might inadvertently or intentionally bypass IP address

You can use a proxy server to bypass specific IP exclusions, if the proxy server IP

address is not included in the IP exclusion ranges on the Login IP Address Restrictions

page. Likewise, the possibility that a valid proxy server is included in the IP exclusion

ranges prevents a valid user from signing in through that proxy server.

Ensure valid proxy servers are within a valid Inclusion ranges, and make the

Inclusion ranges as small as possible. Using IP inclusion ranges is more effective

than using IP exclusion ranges because Inclusion ranges exclude all addresses not

specified in the IP inclusion range.

12.12.2.5 I cannot sign in to Systems Insight Manager using Internet Explorer 6.0.

If your Systems Insight Manager server has an underscore in the name, use the IP

address of the Systems Insight Manager server instead of the name in the Internet

Explorer address field. Internet Explorer has a problem with underscores in system

names, which prevents the authentication cookie from working properly.

12.12.2.6 I cannot sign in to Systems Insight Manager or to managed systems browsing from

Systems Insight Manager using Internet Explorer 6.0.

Reason 1: Internet Explorer has a problem with underscores in system names, which

prevents the authentication cookie from working properly.

If the names of the systems have an underscore, use the IP address of the system.

Procedure 29 Configure HP Systems Insight Manager to create links to the system

using the IP address instead of the name

1. Browse and sign-in to Systems Insight Manager.

2. Select Security→System Link Configuration. The System Link Configuration

page appears

3. Select Use the system IP address.

4. Click OK.

NOTE: By using IP addresses instead of names, you might encounter security

alerts, if the name in the managed system certificate does not match the name in

the link. The default certificate for managed systems uses the system name, not the

IP address.

Reason 2: For managed systems, the privacy policy setting in Internet Explorer 6.0

blocks the authentication cookies from the managed systems.

Solution 2A: (Recommended) Remove the systems from the Internet Zone. The privacy

policy affects only systems in the browser Internet Zone. Therefore, by removing

systems from that zone, you prevent the privacy policy from affecting those systems.

To change the browser privacy policy setting, select Internet Options, and then
