Compaq Insight Manager
Compaq Insight Manager
Compaq Insight Manager is the Compaq application for easily managing
network desktops and servers. Compaq Insight Manager delivers intelligent
monitoring and alerting as well as visual control of your Compaq servers and
desktops. In the unlikely event of hardware failures, Compaq Insight Manager
also provides a full complement of remote maintenance and control facilities.
Compaq Insight Manager is an easy-to-use intuitive software utility for
collecting server information. This information is used by Insight Manager to
perform the following functions:
■ Send fault condition alerts to a predetermined destination
■ Monitor fault conditions and server performance
■ Control server security and configuration
■ Remotely control servers
■ Initiate Rapid Recovery services
In Compaq servers, every hardware subsystem, such as disk storage, system
memory, and system processor, has a robust set of management capabilities.
Compaq Full-Spectrum Fault Management prevents faults before they happen,
keeps the system up and running in the unlikely event of a failure, and delivers
rapid server recovery to normal operation after a fault. See Chapter 4, “Server
Configuration and Utilities,” for more information.
Compaq Web-Based Management
Compaq Web-Based Management allows you to access your managed Device
List and the Compaq Insight Manager Alarm Log with a Web browser, either
locally at the management console or from another machine. If you have
devices that are running Compaq Insight Management Agents 4.x, you can
also view the device data using a browser.
Two buttons have been added to the button bar in Compaq Insight Manager.
One button launches your browser with the Device List displayed, the other
button launches your browser with the Alarm Log displayed.
