HP Insight Control 7.3 Update 1 Getting Started Guide

4 Using the HP Insight managed system setup wizard
The Insight managed system setup wizard is an HP SIM plug-in tool that simplifies configuring
Insight Management components for use on managed systems. Configuration tasks include
assignment of licenses, agent deployment, and other configuration checks and actions. The wizard
is especially useful to configure managed systems for use with HP Matrix Operating Environment
components, but it can also be used to set up managed systems for Insight Control and HP SIM.
The first time you instantiate the GUI, you are prompted to select key settings that will get you the
best fit and most functionality from your managed systems. Thereafter, you can run the Insight
managed system setup wizard at any time to change the configuration or management features
of your managed systems.
You also can use the wizard to diagnose configuration issues with your managed systems. The
Analyze Systems step of the wizard determines if licenses, agents, or other configuration tasks are
needed to enable the chosen management features on the target managed systems.
Prerequisites to running the Insight managed system setup wizard
Before you can run the Insight managed system setup wizard, the target managed systems must
be discovered in HP SIM and must have valid credentials stored within HP SIM.
