Systems Insight Manager integration Systems Insight Manager overview Use HP Systems Insight Manager to: • Discover management modules. As part of the discovery process, HP SIM can detect an installed management module. The web interface for the discovered module can be launched from the HP SIM All Systems page. • Receive SNMP traps from the management module. The module can send event-based traps to HP SIM that include a URL in the trap.
Discovering the management module HP SIM automatically detects management modules as part of the device discovery process. If detected, a hyperlink is included on the HP SIM All Systems page for the PDR on which the management module is installed. The management module should be installed and running before attempting discovery through HP SIM. If the defaults are not used, a new entry can be made to the additionalwsdisc.
To register the MIB: 1. Copy the MIB to the HP\Systems Insight Manager\mibs folder. 2. From the HP\Systems Insight Manager\mibs folder, run mcompile cpqpower.mib from the command line to compile the new MIB. A new file named cpqpower.cfg is created. 3. Register the new MIB by entering mxmib -a cpqpower.cfg from the HP\Systems Insight Manager\mibs command line. 4. Enter HP\Systems Insight Manager\mibs>mxmib at the command line and verify that the new MIB is listed.
Security considerations Security considerations overview The management module implements strict security for two important reasons: • The module manages devices that have the potential to perform operations that are sensitive and destructive. • The management module has browser accessibility.
Optional PDR monitoring using SNMP PDR monitoring Power status, events, and traps can be monitored using third-party SNMP managers. SNMP monitoring supports the HP Power MIB (CPQPOWER.MIB). Using the SNMP submenu (on page 53): 1. Configure the third-party SNMP manager to monitor the HP PDR Management Module. 2. In the third-party SNMP manager, configure the HP PDR Management Module information to be monitored by the SNMP manager. The HP Power MIB (CPQPOWER.
HP PDR Management Module quick setup Quick setup information The HP PDR Management Module has one configuration port, one ModBus port, and one Ethernet port. The quick setup can be done through the Service Menu (on page 51) or online Network Setup. • To access the Service Menu, use HyperTerminal with a serial connection. • To access online Network Setup, use a web browser if the assigned IP address is known.
Accessing the online application with a known IP address 1. Open a browser window. 2. Enter HTTP://xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx, and login to the PDR Management Module application.
Updating the firmware Updating the firmware overview To update the management module firmware from an application, download the HP PDR Management Upgrade Utility on the HP website (http://www.hp.com/go/rackandpower), and follow the attached instructions. If the firmware is corrupted and updates using the HP PDR Management Upgrade Utility are prevented, you can update the firmware using the bootloader. This process is only available when the application is damaged.
