About management processors
HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM) uses HTTP and SNMP to identify management processors. Previous
versions of HP SIM used only SNMP identification to identify management processors and obtain their status.
Now, HTTP identification is performed first, followed by SNMP identification. If a new management processor
is installed in the server, the Web Agents must be reinstalled on the server, or the management processor
might not be correctly identified. If both the server and the management processor have been discovered
and identified, an association is made. The association between the management processor and other
systems is displayed in the System Name column on the system table view page by showing one of the
following:
• " management processor " in server " system "
• " management processor " to " complex "
• " management processor " to server " nPar "
