Insight Provider usage

You access data and events from the Insight Providers using the SMH supplied in the Integrity
Support Pack (ISP), HP SIM, other client application, or script that supports WMI and SMASH.

The SMH provides a web interface for accessing management data locally or remotely. SMH
support for the Insight Providers is composed of two parts:

The HP System Management Homepage for Windows Smart Component that is included with
the Integrity Support Pack for Windows. This is the SMH framework.

The web application plug-in that is installed with the Insight Providers. This provides the web
pages that show management data using the Insight Providers.

HP SIM 5.2 and later support the Insight Providers. For information on configuring HP SIM for use
with the Insight Providers, see Chapters 4 and 12 of the HP Systems Insight Manager 5.2 Technical
Reference Guide
.

Any client application or script that supports WMI and SMASH can also be used to access data
and events from the Insight Providers. The Microsoft MSDN website provides information on building
WMI clients such as Visual Basic scripts or C++ and C# applications. For more information, see
the following WMI references on the MSDN website:

HP Insight Management Services

The Integrity WBEM Providers Smart Component includes the following components:
Predictive Failure Monitor

Enables a service that monitors failures in the system and
that generates events when specific thresholds are reached.
Currently 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 Performance Technology
performance errors.

Event subsystem information

Enables a service that monitors events from the System Events
Log (SEL), Forward Process Log (FPL), and management
Processor (MP).

Automatic Server Recovery

Enables a service that verifies if the system is frozen and
reboots the system automatically (if frozen).
