Managed storage system
To view the latest information regarding Systems Insight Manager support for a particular storage system,
including Fibre Channel disk arrays, switches, tape libraries, or hosts (with Fibre Channel host bus adapters),
see the Systems Insight Manager SMI-S Provider web page at http://www.hp.com/go/hpsim/providers.

SSH requirements
SSH is locally configured during Systems Insight Manager local installation on the CMS.
Custom tools on the Tools menu require SSH version 1.0 or later on the CMS to run properly. These
commands run on the CMS with environment variables set to the context of specific events or devices.
You can install and configure SSH version 1.0 or later on each of the managed systems and have Systems
Insight Manager exchange keys with the managed systems (through the mxagentconfig command or for
Windows, through the Install SSH task). If you do this, then the Command Line Tools option on the Tools
menu works for these managed systems. If you choose not to configure it to work with remote SSH clients,
then these commands fail. There is no other loss of functionality without SSH.
Foreign language support
Japanese, Korean, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese are supported on all platforms as listed in
“System requirements”. French, German, Italian, Spanish are supported on Windows systems only.
