HP Insight Remote Support 7.0.9 Monitored Devices Configuration Guide

Chapter 18: Configuring P6000 and Enterprise
Virtual Arrays
The P6000 Command View server can be either a standalone server with the Command View and SMI-S
software installed (referred to as Server Based Management - SBM) or it can be built in to the EVA device
itself, referred to as Array Based Management ABM.
l To configure a P6000 or EVA using Server Based Management, see "Configuring P6000 and
Enterprise Virtual Arrays Using Server Based Management" below
l To configure a P6000 or EVA using Array Based Management, see "Configuring P6000 and Enterprise
Virtual Arrays Using Array Based Management" on page 160
Configuring P6000 and Enterprise Virtual Arrays Using
Server Based Management
The following information applies to both monitored devices and Hosting Devices that are hosting P6000
Command View. The ProLiant Windows system hosting P6000 Command View has the same system
requirements and configuration for any ProLiant Windows server (see "Configuring ProLiant Windows
Servers" on page 45). Be sure to set your WMI and/or SNMP credentials accordingly. Additionally, you
must install the Event Log Monitoring Collector (ELMC) on the monitored device.
Before you install and configure Insight Remote Support:
1. Verify that P6000 Command View 9.4 or higher is installed on the Hosting Device.
Go to the Windows Control Panel and make sure that HP P6000 Command View Software appears in
the Add/Remove Programs window.
2. Make sure that the SMI-S EVA and SMI-S CIMOM components (the two components that comprise
SMI-S) are installed on the Hosting Device.
Verify the component is installed and running by checking the presence and status of the Service
named HP CIM Object Manager.
Note: HP highly recommends that you enable the Email Adapter on the Administrator
Settings → Integration Adapters tab and, at the minimum, select the following notifications:
Case Opened, Application Failure, Entitlement Expiration, and Device Change.
