Introduction 10

Processes

The Insight Integration installation introduces several specific background and foreground process files,
which work with the native NNM processes to provide system discovery, receive and translate HP SNMP

events, and display the system hardware status on the NNM management maps.

CPQDIS

CPQDIS is a background process started by the

OVSTART

command that performs the following

functions:

Uses data gathered by the HP NNM database to redefine all discovered systems running HP Insight
Management Agents

Categorizes by system type all discovered HP nodes (for example, server or client systems) and
identifies the associated operating system on each discovered HP node

Updates the overall status of the HP node

Runs before any of the other processes installed by the Insight Integration can start

References the Discovery section of the CPQCONFIG.DAT file. For more information on the
CPQCONFIG.DAT file, see "Configuration files (on page

22

)."

CPQTRAPD

CPQTRAPD is the trap daemon that the Insight Integration uses to process all traps received from the 232

enterprise.
The HP Network Node Manager process uses TRAPD to receive SNMP traps. The CPQTRAPD process
works with TRAPD to identify traps that are specific to HP and formulates the traps into a readable format.

Complex values received from the HP Insight Management Agents are converted to explanatory text

strings before they are displayed as messages in the NNM Event Browser.
When the Insight Integration is installed, the TRAPD configuration file (TRAPD.CONF) is modified to

accept and process all events from the 232 enterprise as "Log Only," which means that the events are
copied to the NNM Event Log (TRAPD.LOG), but are not displayed in the NNM Event Browser. The

CPQTRAPD process translates the raw SNMP events and adds new information and recommended

actions where appropriate. The translated trap is re-entered through TRAPD with a "Log and Display"

definition, and then copied to the NNM Event Log and displayed in the NNM Event Browser.
