Using the Insight Integration
During installation, the Insight Integration copies several background and foreground process files that
work with the native NNM processes to provide system discovery, reception, and translation of HP SNMP
events in the NNM Alarm Browser and displays the HP system status on the NNM segment map.
To ensure correct operation of the Insight Integration, the background processes of HP Network Node
Manager and the Insight Integration must be running. Normally, these processes are started by the
process management daemon (OVSPMD) when the operating system is initialized. If any of these
background processes do not run, before starting the OVW, start the processes using the
OVSTART
command.
For more information about using the
OVSTART
command, see the HP Network Node Manager User's
Guide. For a full description of the processes installed by the Insight Integration, see "Product architecture
(on page 9 )."
Checking the status of HP background processes
To check the status of the background processes, run the
OVSTATUS
command from a command line
prompt.
If any of these processes are not active, you might have a configuration or communications problem. To
confirm that the Insight Integration has been installed correctly and to resolve any problems, see
"Troubleshooting (on page
94 )." For information about using the
OVSTATUS
command, see the HP
Network Node Manager User's Guide.
Starting the Insight Integration
The Insight Integration integrates into the existing NNM infrastructure and default processes. Therefore,
the Insight Integration is started automatically with the
OVW
command.
If the Insight Integration is not running, see "Checking the status of HP background processes (on page
38 )" or "Troubleshooting (on page 94 )" for further assistance.
Exiting the Insight Integration
To stop all foreground processes associated with the Insight Integration, exit the HP NNM GUI. To stop
the background processes, use the
OVSTOP
command.
For a full description of the processes installed by the Insight Integration, see "Product architecture (on
page
9 )." For information about using the
OVSTOP
command, see the HP Network Node Manager
User's Guide.
