Introduction
Overview
The Insight Integration for HP Network Node Manager Revision 3.4, (referred to as the Insight Integration)
integrates into the HP Network Node Manager (NNM) management console hardware management and
event notification for HP ProLiant, HP AlphaServer, and HP Integrity Superdome servers; Compaq Evo and
Compaq Deskpro client systems; and HP storage configurations. System administrators can easily identify,
organize, and manage HP systems from within their existing HP Network Node Manager environments.
The Insight Integration includes processes and specific icons that enable you to clearly identify and
monitor HP systems on the NNM management map. It also includes event definitions for translating and
displaying more than 400 HP SNMP events in the NNM Event Console.
This revision of the Insight Integration supersedes the previous Compaq Insight Manager for HP Network
Node Manager and provides many important enhancements, such as more direct access to detailed
hardware data, additional HP management tools, and support for HP Management Agents (up to and
including version 7.90) and the latest HP Network Node Manager platforms.
The Insight Integration builds on the functionality of the Insight Management Agents and works with native
HP Network Node Manager services to provide the most manageable platform for HP Network Node
Manager across a wide range of host and managed operating platforms. This functionality enables
system administrators to manage events for HP server, client, and storage hardware, and other enterprise
resources, from a common NNM console. Supported operating platforms for host and managed systems
include HP-UX, Sun Solaris, Microsoft® Windows Server™ 2003, Microsoft® Windows® 2000,
Microsoft® Windows NT®, Microsoft® Windows® XP, Novell NetWare, Linux, HP Tru64 UNIX®, and
HP OpenVMS.
Additional data for individual HP servers is available through an integrated browser launch to the HP
System Management Homepage, which provides access to Insight Management Agents, Version Control
Agents, System Diagnostics, and Survey from the NNM console.
The HP System Management Homepage and Insight Management Agents provide a link to the RILOE and
iLO solutions for advanced remote management and deployment of ProLiant systems.
To provide broader lifecycle management for groups of HP systems, the Insight Integration includes
application launches to HP Systems Insight Manager and the agents associated with the HP Storage
Management Appliance.
