HP Toptools for Unicenter User Guide
2 Installing the hp toptools Server Bridge Component
There are two bridge components that compose HP Toptools for Unicenter, a Toptools server bridge
and a platform bridge. The server bridge must be installed on the Toptools server as described below, while the
platform bridge must be installed on the Unicenter system as described later.
2.1 Preparing the toptools Server
The Toptools Device Manager must be installed and accessible to the system running Unicenter. Using the
browser, invoke the URL http://<Toptools_Server>/hptt where <Toptools_Server> is the fully-qualified DNS
hostname or IP address of the system running the Toptools Device Manager. If you are unable to access the
Toptools server, consult the Toptools Device Manager documentation to troubleshoot the problem. Refer to Section
1.
You may be prompted for a login. Only members of one of the three Toptools user groups “toptools”, “toptools
operator”, or “toptools admin” are authenticated to access the Toptools server.
To simplify logins from the Unicenter server, use the Windows NT User
Manager to add Unicenter users to the appropriate Toptools group(s) on the
Toptools server. Otherwise, each browser launch will be accompanied by an
authentication prompt.
WARNING:
Discovery is turned off by
this installation. Proper
operation of both Toptools
and the bridge require that it
NOT be turned on again.
