Managed Systems Configuration Guide
Chapter 20: Tape Library Configuration
Configure the Command View TL 3.0 CIMOM and
TapeAssure Provider
The Command View TL 3.0 CIMOM has user authentication enabled. With authentication enabled, the
administrator of the Open Pegasus CIMOM now has to create SMI-S users and provide access privileges
for each user. Any current, or newly created Windows user can become a cimuser.
Complete the following steps to add users and namespaces for Command View TL 3.0 CIMOM
authentication:
1. Open a command window and change directory to: C:\Program Files (x86)\Hewlett-
Packard\Command View TL\op-cimom\bin.
2. To create a cimuser, use the command:
cimuser –a –u <Windows username>
The command asks for password and a confirmation. Provide the password of your choice.
3. Provide Read/Write access to the namespaces. In the TapeAssure Provider, all classes are
implemented in two namespaces: root/PG_Interop and root/hptl. Both name spaces should
be given read/write access. To provide access to the above name spaces to a selected user, use the
command:
cimauth –a -u <cimuser> -n <namespace> -R _W
HP SIM Device Discovery
1. On the CMS, open HP SIM and discover the tape libraries. Either discover each library individually or
discover them within a range of IP addresses.
2. Ensure that the libraries are discovered correctly over SNMP, and that they appear correctly in the All
Systems list. If any of the devices appear as Unknown under System Type, select the System
Name of that device and under the Tools & Links tab, select Edit System Properties.
3. If you have changed the default CIMOM port number as described in "Configure the Command View
TL 2.8 CIMOM and TapeAssure Provider" on the previous page, and before attempting to discover the
Command View TL host server, edit the wbemportlist.xml in the C:\Program
Files\HP\Systems Insight Manager\config\identification, to reflect the new
secure port number. Then restart the HP SIM service.
4. Once HP SIM has restarted, discover the Command View TL host individually by its IP address,
ensuring that when you are creating the Command View TL host discovery task, the CIMOM user
credentials created above are entered. If the Command View TL host appears as Unknown under
System Type, select the System Name of that device and under the Tools & Links tab, select Edit
System Properties.
WEBES Configuration
1. Start the System Event Analyzer (SEA) GUI. Check that all of the managed tape libraries and the
Command View TL host(s) appear in the Managed Entities page. Edit the individual devices if any
appear to be missing any Entity Info.
