NOTE: The default settings in Firefox block the First Time Wizard. You must disable the pop-up blocker in

Firefox to see the First Time Wizard.

The First Time Wizard includes the following options:

• Introduction Describes the purpose of the First Time Wizard. You can cancel the First Time Wizard

and disable the wizard from automatically starting when an administrative user signs in.

• Managed Environment Specifies all operating systems managed by the CMS. The selections made

here configure HP SIM to show collections, tools, and reports only for managed environments that are

selected.

This page also collects required details for each TDEF selection, such as IP address of the Ignite server,

• System Automatic Discovery Use the wizard to enable discovery, set up the discovery schedule, and

enter the IP address ranges or host names of the systems you want to discover. Discovery is the process

HP SIM uses to find and identify systems on your network and populate the database with that

information. A system must be discovered to collect data and track

system health status

• Credentials: System Automatic Discovery Use the wizard to set the sign-in credentials and the SNMP

credentials for the System Automatic Discovery task.

• Configure Managed Systems Configure managed systems as they are discovered, by configuring

WBEM and WMI, SNMP, SSH access, and trust relationship.

• WMI Mapper Proxy To retrieve managed system information on Windows systems, enter the mapper

proxy system host name and port number.

NOTE: This page only appears if you selected to manage a Windows system.

• Privilege Elevation Enable privilege elevation if, on HP-UX, Linux, and ESX managed systems, you

are required to sign in as a non-root user and then request privilege elevation to run root-level tools.

• E-mail Enter the e-mail settings that the CMS will use to send e-mail notifications. You can set up

Automatic Event Handling tasks that prompt HP SIM to send e-mails when the CMS receives a specific

event.

• Summary Displays all First Time Wizard settings with the option to modify settings or to finish the

First Time Wizard.

The First Time Wizard configures only the basic settings of HP SIM. See the HP SIM installation guides located
