HP Systems Insight Manager 7.2 Technical Reference Guide

NOTE: If software filtering is activated, then only systems with software information are
displayed in the results. Depending on the criteria, the results may be further filtered.
NOTE: Searching software information depends on the following:
• Only CMSs running Systems Insight Manager 6.0 and later make software information
searchable remotely.
• Software information is collected only if the system has a WBEM agent running and the
CMS managing the system is configured with suitable WBEM credentials to access the
agent.
3. In the Options box, select the option to be used if a system is found on more than one CMS.
NOTE: There can be an overlap in the systems that different CMSs manage. If the same
system is found on multiple CMSs, the information from the CMS with the newest system
information is displayed. You can change this setting to show all matches and the same system
could display multiple times in the results table.
