HP Insight Control for Linux 6.1 Release Notes

• IP Address Range
If you want to have IP addresses assigned automatically, you can enter a range of IP addresses
in this optional field. Specify the range with a hyphen, for example:
192.168.10.5-192.168.10.50
You can enter a comma-separated list of ranges, for example:
192.168.10.5-192.168.10.50,192.168.11.100-192.168.11.199
If you want to assign IP addresses manually, leave this field blank.
• SNMP Server(s)
Optionally enter a list of SNMP servers. These entries are reserved for future use.
• Name Server(s)
Optionally enter a comma-separated list of DNS Name server IP addresses for this subnet.
• NTP Server(s)
Optionally enter a comma-separated list of NTP servers.
• Next IP Address in range
This read-only field displays the next IP address that will automatically be defined when
IP addresses are assigned automatically.
• Time Zone

3.2.3 Addition to Chapter 3, Discovering managed systems, switches, and enclosures
Section 3.3.1 is missing the following NOTE:
NOTE: If you want to use a management processor password that is fewer than 8 characters,
you must first change the settings on the MP. Otherwise, an Insight Control for Linux bare-metal
discovery will hang.
3.2.4 Correction to Chapter 4, Installing and setting up managed systems
The NOTE in Section 4.2, Setting up management hubs, is incomplete. The full note should read
as follows:
NOTES:
• Only servers running a supported version of RHEL or SLES can act as management hubs.
• If the /hptc_cluster directory is exported, the operating system on each management
hub must have the same architecture type (that is, 64-bit or 32-bit) as the CMS. Otherwise,
you cannot view metric data from the hub nodes.
• Management hubs must run the same operating system as the CMS.
• HP recommends the use of physical servers for use as management hubs.
