Systems Insight Manager 6.0 Installation and Configuration Guide for Linux

Configuring HP SIM to discover storage systems
After verifying that each storage system’s SMI-S provider is installed and configured, configure HP SIM to
discover the storage systems by performing the following steps:
1. Enter the user name and password for each provider’s SMI CIMOM in the Default WBEM settings
section on the Setting Global Protocols page.
2. Add each SMI CIMOM IP address to the System Automatic Discovery task or to the Creating a
New Discovery task. For more information, see the HP Systems Insight Manager 6.0 User Guide at
http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/management/hpsim/infolibrary.html.
HP SIM discovers the storage systems after the next automatic discovery task. To discover your storage
systems immediately, run the discovery task as described in the “Running a Discovery Task” section of the
HP Systems Insight Manager 6.0 User Guide at http://h18013.www1.hp.com/products/servers/
