Monitoring WS-Man Events with HP SIM
After configuring HP SIM to discover the Superdome 2 OA and OS partitions, and verifying that discovery
populated the Entitlement Information field on the OA’s page with Customer-Entered Serial Number and
Product Number information, HP SIM should be configured to subscribe to the WBEM indications from the
HP-UX partitions and to subscribe to the WS-Man indications from the Superdome 2 OA. Establishing
these subscriptions and their verification can be performed on the CMS using command line entries or
remotely using the HP SIM web interface as described below.
l To use the HP SIM web interface to create a subscription to enable HP SIM to monitor the Superdome
2 OA and OS partition events:
a. In HP SIM, select Options → Events → Subscribe to WBEM Events.
b. In the drop-down list, select All Systems and identify the systems to be targeted by selecting their
check boxes. Click Apply.
c. If the systems do not meet the criteria for HP SIM to establish subscriptions (such as if they were
not discovered using the OS or OA log on credentials) they will be so flagged. If they do meet the
criteria, select Next to initiate the subscription process. HP SIM will respond with subscription
status once it completes this process.
d. Verify the status of WBEM/WS-Man event monitoring subscriptions in HP SIM by selecting
Options → Events → Check Event Configuration.
e. In the drop-down list, select All Systems and identify the systems to be targeted by selecting their
check boxes. Click Apply. HP SIM will return the status of the subscriptions for each partition
and/or OA selected.
l To use the CLI to create a subscription to enable HP SIM to monitor the Superdome 2 OA WS-Man
events and OS partition WBEM events:
a. On the CMS, open a DOS command prompt and type the following command:
mxwbemsub –a yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy –n xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx
where yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy is either the CMS’s IP address or FQDN, and xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx is
either the FQDN or IP address of the Superdome 2 OA.
Repeat this command substituting for xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx the IP address or FQDN for each OS
partition to be monitored.
b. List all of the active subscriptions on the Superdome 2 OA and OS partitions. On the CMS open a
DOS command prompt and type the following command:
mxwbemsub -l yyy.yyy.yyy.yyy -n xxx.xxx.xxx.xxx –s
