NOTE: In some cases, depending on the DNS configurations, you might need to use the IP address or a
Fully Qualified DNS name to make the links work appropriately. See “Configuring the system link” for more
information.
The Quick Launch link provides instant access to a short list of frequently used tools. Place your cursor over
the link to expand the menu and view the tools available for the systems that are currently displayed. Selecting
a tool from this list bypasses the target verification page of the Task Wizard, regardless of the Task Wizard
settings. Tools launched with this menu cannot be scheduled. The menu can be customized by clicking the
Customize link in the Quick Launch menu.
System Management Pages
This section includes links that are provided by the HTTP Web Management on the system. These links are

not displayed. Some of the available links include the following:
• HP Version Control Agent

HP Systems Insight Manager Pages
This section contains links that are generated by HP Systems Insight Manager (HP SIM). Some of the available
links include:
• The Data Collection Report link displays the data collection report for the system in a separate report
results window.
NOTE: The storage tables in HP SIM's Data Collection reports are not populated with data because
HP SIM's SMI-S data collection is disabled.
NOTE: The Data Collection report is not available for clusters.
• The System Protocol Settings link points to the Protocol Settings, where you can set the protocol
settings for this individual system only.
• The Edit System Properties link enables users with administrative rights to reconfigure some of the
system properties for a single system through its system page. This link is not available if you do not
have administrative rights.
See “ Editing system properties for multiple systems” for information about setting system properties for
multiple systems.
• The Suspend/Resume Monitoring link enables you to set the timer for suspending monitoring, which
enables a system to be excluded from the status polling, identification, data collection, and the automatic
event handling features of HP SIM. The available suspend lengths include the predetermined increments
of 5 minutes, 15 minutes, 1 hour, and 1 day. The suspend feature can be turned on indefinitely. This
link is only available to users with administrative rights.
See “Suspending or resuming system monitoring for multiple systems” for information about suspending
or resuming monitoring for multiple systems.
