Cron job
SFM includes the following features from the HP-UX 11i v3 February 2007 release:
• Cron job: Every 15 minutes, the cron job checks if the SFMProviderModule is running. If
the SFMProviderModule is not running, the cron job starts the SFMProviderModule which
in turn starts all the providers.
• Vacuum cron job: Configured to be invoked once a day, the vacuum cron job is used to free
up unused memory space of SFM PostgresSQL database.
User Interfaces
You can use two types of interfaces to view SFM provider queries: HP SIM and HP SMH. This
section describes these interfaces.
HP Systems Insight Manager
HP SIM is a WBEM-based user interface for controlling and monitoring resources within a
large-scale system. You can use HP SIM to create subscriptions and to view indications and
instances on a remote system. You must install HP SIM on the CMS. You can use HP SIM to
launch HP SMH.
