Configuring the managed environment

From this page, select the operating systems that the CMS will manage. There are four options: Windows,

Linux, HP-UX, and Other. The selections made here configure HP SIM to hide collections, tools, and reports

for operating systems you do not manage. By default the CMS operating system is selected on this page.

NOTE: These settings can be changed at any time, and the hidden collections, tools, and reports can be

made visible again. To change these settings from the HP SIM menu, select Options→ Managed

Environment.

1. Select the operating systems for the CMS to manage.

If you select HP-UX, select menu items and provide required information. These menu items are for

handling Integrity Extensions on a Windows or Linux CMS and are not available on an HP-UX CMS.

2. Click Next to go to the next First Time Wizard step, or click Previous to return to the previous step.

If you selected HP-UX, the system attempts to verify the prerequisites. For example, for Ignite-UX, the

system tries to connect to the Ignite server. If it is unable to do so, an error message appears. After

closing the error message box, you are return to the Managed Environment First Time Wizard page

until you provide valid information or cancel the selection.

The minor version of the tool inside the TDEF file changes each time a tool is re-registered, if a later version

is available.
