Tool What is it? How do I run it?
Integrated
Management
Log (IML)
A log that records system events, such as system
failures or non-fatal error conditions. You can view an
event in the Integrated Management Log in the
following ways:
■ View on the Integrated Management Display.
■ View from within Compaq Insight Manager.
■ View from within Compaq Survey Utility.
The Integrated Management
Log requires Compaq
operating system-dependent
drivers. Refer to the Compaq
SmartStart and Support
Software CD for instructions
on installing the appropriate
drivers.
Compaq
Inspect Utility
The Inspect utility provides a report detailing system
information.
The Inspect utility can be run
from either the main menu of
the System Configuration
utility or the Compaq
Diagnostics program.
Compaq
Insight
Manager
A client/server application used to remotely manage
Compaq hardware in a network environment. It reports
hardware fault conditions (both failure and pre-failure)
and collects data for reporting and graphing.
For more information, refer
to the Compaq Management
CD and the Compaq Insight
Manager User Guide.
Compaq
Survey Utility
An online information gathering agent that runs on
servers, gathering critical hardware and software
information from various sources. A utility for servers
running Windows NT or NetWare.
If a significant change occurs between data gathering
intervals, the previous information is marked, and the
survey text file is overwritten to reflect the latest
configuration and changes from the last significantly
different configuration. This allows you to keep a
historical record of change events for server hardware
and software.
You can install from
SmartStart, the Compaq
Integration Maintenance
Utility, or from the Compaq
Management CD.
