HP Insight Dynamics 6.0 Getting Started Guide

configured to use agentless data collection. The Utilization Provider is no longer supported
by Insight Dynamics on Linux managed systems.
• Microsoft Windows managed systems, but only if you are using a CMS that is also running
Microsoft Windows (agentless data collection from Windows systems is not supported on
an HP-UX CMS).
In these cases, when you use the managed system setup wizard to configure the system for
agentless data collection, the following message will be displayed:
Agentless data collection is not configured; it will be configured.
An HP Utilization Provider has been detected; it will not be used for data collection.
You should remove any sub-OS workloads defined on this system.
NOTE: Any sub-OS workloads are automatically removed during the upgrade to Insight
Dynamics 6.0.
You may choose to remove the Utilization Provider from the affected systems after they have
been configured for agentless data collection.
IMPORTANT: Even though Insight Dynamics will no longer use the Utilization Provider for
data collection, there may be other software installed on the system that still uses it (for example,
HP Insight Control power management). Do not remove the agent if it is still in use.
