4.3.9 Insight Manager Agents

Insight Manager Agents for Tru64 UNIX include SNMP-based subagents and

Web Based Enterprise Management (WBEM) capabilities to present SNMP

data in a format viewable by a Web browser. It provides a rich view of the

data using HTML 2.0 and JavaScript in the form of Web pages.

4.3.9.1 Installation

Insight Manager is installed automatically when you install the operating

system’s mandatory subsets. They are OSFCLINET440, which includes the

Compaq Mibs and SNMP subagent, and OSFIMXE440, which includes the

Insight Manager subagents. For further information on these subsets, see the

Installation Guide.

4.3.9.2 Starting and Stopping the Insight Manager Daemons

The Insight Manager daemons are started as part of the init 3 startup

process. The Compaq SNMP subagent ( /usr/sbin/cpq_mibs)is

initialized and started or stopped as part of the snmpd startup script:

# /sbin/init.d/snmpd start

# /sbin/init.d/snmpd stop

The WBEM daemon is started and stopped from a new script called

insightd:

# /sbin/init.d/insightd start

# /sbin/init.d/insightd stop

4.3.9.3 How to Monitor the Tru64 UNIX Managed System

The Compaq Insight Manager Agents provide access to device management

data over the industry-standard HTTP protocol. This lets you view

management data from a Web browser, either locally or remotely.

http://127.0.0.1:2301/

Use this URL if localhost is conﬁgured:
