HP Insight Storage Agents
HP Insight Storage Agents comprise the following:
Fibre Array information Enables a service that provides support for Fibre Channel
connected Storage Management. This service is not
supported on HP Virtual Machines (HPVM).
Drive Array information For a physical drive: Each physical drive is listed as a
separate entry in the Mass Storage submenu. The
information displayed next to the physical drive includes
the condition of the drive, the location of the drive (port and
drive number), and drive size.
For a logical drive: Each logical drive in the list displays the
condition, logical drive number, and the fault tolerance of
that logical drive.
This service is not supported on HP Virtual Machines
(HPVM).
SCSI information Provides the module name, module version, and the date
the agent was created.
This service is not supported on HP Virtual Machines
(HPVM).
Storage Remote Alert Enables a service that provides support for SNMP Traps for
all SCSI, Smart Array, and Fiber Channel Storage Agents.
This service is not supported on HP Virtual Machines
(HPVM).
HP Insight Management Services
Management Processor (MP)
information
Enables a telnet connection to the MP through a browser
and captures information about the MP.
HP Loop-Back Event Service Enables a service that monitors trap-generating events in
SEL when specific traps are received. The service monitors
traps that do not have a corresponding event in SEL, such
as events generated by Storage, Cluster, and Foundation.
Predictive Failure Monitor Enables a service that monitors failures in the system and
generates events when thresholds are reached. Monitored
failures include memory errors, internal cache errors,
external cache for MX2 processor errors, fabric errors,
Enhanced Thermal Management, Front Side Bus, and Intel
Cache Safe Technology performance errors.
Event subsystem information Enables a service that monitors events from System Events
Log (SEL), Forward Progress Log (FPL), and the MP, and
generates traps when events are found.
Automatic Server Recovery Enables a service that checks if the system is frozen and if
so, reboots the system.
Using SMH
SMH enables you to administer systems locally via a web-based GUI. It provides a single,
hierarchical menu interface that enables you to quickly find and invoke applications to perform
common system tasks. Before you can start using SMH you must first complete the tasks described
earlier in this document, described here: “Configure the WBEM Providers (or SNMP Management
Agents)” (page 52).
